My easy burritos go like this:
Splash of oil
1 onion, chopped
1 tsp cumin
250g tempeh (for the vegan version - use chicken or something otherwise)
1 capsicum, chopped
2 corn cobs, de kernelled
lime juice
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 chilli, chopped
fresh coriander
Put things into a large frypan over high heat in the order they are posted - if it seems to be burning, chuck a little bit of water on it. Also works awesome on the barbecue.
tortillas (I heart homebrand) to serve; sour cream; avocado; a bit of salad if you fancy.
DH does awesome enchiladas, but they are so fiddly.
You need a slow cooker, or a pressure cooker. A jar of your favourite salsa (or make your own... recipe to come). Chicken stock, chicken breasts.
1 jar salsa
2 cups chicken stock
2-3 chicken breasts (or thighs if you like)
Thats it.
Put the salsa on the bottom of the slow cooker. Put the chicken on top of the salsa. Pour the chicken stock over the top. Keep it on low 6 hours or so.... take 2 forks and shred up your melting chicken!!
For more flavour if you need more:
add 1 clove garlic crushed
2 tsp cumin ground
a few leaves of cilantro at the end
3 tomatoes - I prefer vine ripened
1 red capsicum
1/2 red onion
1 jalapeno - or if not available you can buy the pickled ones and use 4-5 of the slices
1 clove garlic
1/2 lime (juiced or squeeze it on in the end)
salt
pepper
*if needed for the very spicy lovers - dash of tabasco*
Core and chop your tomatoes finely (or you can put into the KA blender cored).
Chop your red capsicum to the same size as the tomatoes
Chop your red onion very finely
Take the seeds out of your jalapeno if you don't want it to become a firey salsa and use half if you like it mild
crush the clove of garlic.
Squeeze the lime juice over the tomatoes
add salt and pepper in dashes
My husband likes salsa chunky, so I just stir it all up in a bowl and then taste with a corn chip. If its not spicy enough for me, I either add more jalapeno, or dashes of tabasco. I actually prefer it a bit less chunky, so sometimes I pop it in my KitchenAid blender and blitz for 20-30 seconds.
