Instructions
Prepare the Fajitas
Step 1
Prepare the Chicken at least 1 hour in advance to give it time to marinate. Mix all of the chicken ingredients in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the fridge for at least an hour or up to overnight. Change up seasoning and hot sauces per your preferences. Feel free to mix and match. I use the TRUFF black truffle "hotter" and "jalapeno lime" hot sauces. I also use the Kinder chilli lime taco seasoning.

Cook the Fajitas
Step 2
Place all contents of the bowl the chicken was marinating in into a large frying pan (preferably with high edges). Cook for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and all ingredients are charred per your preference.
Prepare the Rice
Step 3
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the rice by washing it. Place all of the rice to the edge of a pot. Then, pour water into the empty space of the pot until the rice is covered. Mix the rice around with your hand and then use your hand to strain the water from the pot. Repeat until the water runs clear or near clear.
![jasmine rice](https://art.whisk.com/image/upload/fl_progressive,h_24,w_24,c_fill,dpr_2.0/v1550764822/graph/fooddb/1ac2f38a7c9801df6a2d36010db2c900.jpg)
Step 4
Pour the avocado oil and grind pepper (to your preference) into the washed rice without water. Fry the rice for 5 minutes, until the rice is lightly golden. While it is frying, prepare the water that will go into the rice. Pace all of the remaining rice ingredients into a measuring cup. Season per your preferences. Then, fill the remaining space up with water until it reaches 1 cup of liquid. Stir the liquid to combine the ingredients.

Step 5
Once the rice is golden, add the prepared rice water to the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to low/simmer. Cook the rice for 15 minutes or until it has absorbed all of the liquid.

Prepare the Toppings
Step 6
Prepare all of your toppings while the rice and chicken are cooking.

Cook the Tortillas
Step 7
Once the rice and chicken are done or almost done, cook the tortillas. Place the tortillas, one at a time, in a pan (or direct stovetop if using an electric stove) on high heat. Cook the tortillas for about 15 seconds on each side depending on desired charring.
![flour tortillas](https://art.whisk.com/image/upload/fl_progressive,h_24,w_24,c_fill,dpr_2.0/v1550764770/graph/fooddb/5924bbd3a2afde744fc3f275b942ff89.jpg)
Assemble the Burrito & Enjoy
Step 8
Assemble the burritos, combining all do the ingredients. I recommend placing the Greek yogurt/sour cream on the tortilla first and the avocados last.
