Ingredients

  • 4 burrito-size tortillas
  • 1 pound pulled pork
  • 2 tablespoons BBQ Sauce (only use if pulled pork doesn't already have sauce mixed in)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 1/3 cups cooked Mexican rice

Cheesy Sour Cream Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup finely diced yellow or sweet onion
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can chicken broth
  • 1/2 (4-ounce) can green chilies
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese blend
  • chopped fresh cilantro and salsa, optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Place tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and lay a damp paper towel on top. Microwave for 30 seconds. (This will make them more pliable.)
  • Mix BBQ sauce with pulled pork.
  • Divide pulled pork, rice, and cheese evenly between tortillas and roll up burrito style.
  • Place on prepared baking sheet and spray each burrito with cooking spray to help the tortilla crisp up.
  • Place in oven for 20 minutes.
  • While burritos are in the oven, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat in a medium saucepan.
  • Add onion and cook until soft.
  • Sprinkle flour into saucepan. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
  • Gradually whisk in chicken broth. Add green chilies, cumin, garlic powder, and salt and simmer 2 to 3 minutes to thicken.
  • Keep warm and stir in sour cream and cheese just before ready to serve.
  • Spoon sauce over burritos. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and add some salsa if desired.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days and reheated in a microwave or 300 degree oven.
