Breakfast Burrito

Summary: I like living on the edge by eating breakfast for lunch or dinner. I am a Texan at heart and this breakfast burrito always hits the spot for me when I'm craving some Mexican flavors since it's really hard to find quality Mex out here in Taipei. Feel free to substitute the chicken for beef or even tofu. 
 
Ingredients:
  • Chicken, I like mine ground for easier eating
  • Onion, minced
  • 2 eggs for 1 large burrito or 2 small burritos, beaten
  • Shredded Cheese
  • Taco Seasoning (fajita seasoning works too, you can find near spices or Mexican section)
  • Water, about 1/4 cup
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Oil
  • Optional:
    • Salsa or Hot Sauce
Step 1: Heat a drizzle of oil in the pan and add the onions. Once the onions are fragrant, add in the ground chicken.

Step 2: When the chicken is almost cooked, sprinkle about half of the taco seasoning over the chicken. Add a little bit of water, enough to dissolve the seasoning. You can start with a little bit and add more if needed. If it's too watery, let the chicken simmer to evaporate the water. Stir and mix well with the chicken and onions.


Step  3: Set the chicken aside when cooked. Add in the beaten eggs and scramble. Salt and pepper to taste. 

Step 4: Set the egg aside when cooked and heat up the tortillas. Just put it in a dry hot pan for 30 seconds on each side. 

Step 5: Assemble your burrito with the chicken and eggs. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top and add salsa or hot sauce if desired.

Step 5: Roll into a burrito and enjoy!
