Hearty BBQ Chicken Breakfast Burritos

Each burrito features a flavorful filling of shredded BBQ chicken, fluffy scrambled eggs, and diced veggies wrapped in a soft tortilla. The preparation time is around 30 minutes, and the recipe yields about 4 servings.
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded BBQ chicken (leftover or store-bought)
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1/4 cup onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, sautéing until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Cook the Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and scramble until cooked through, about 2-3 minutes. Add in the shredded BBQ chicken and mix until everything is heated through.
- Assemble the Burritos: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the BBQ chicken and egg mixture onto the center, sprinkle with shredded cheese, and fold in the sides of the tortilla before rolling it up tightly.
- Cook the Burritos: In the same skillet, place the burritos seam-side down and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Slice the burritos in half, garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and enjoy!
