How to Make It

Step 1

Whisk together seasonings in a medium bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat.

Step 2

Stir sour cream, jalapeño, feta, and lime juice in a small bowl to make feta crema.

Step 3

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan and cook chicken until browned and cooked through, turning pieces occasionally, about 7 minutes. Add tomatoes and onions to pan with a squeeze of lime and stir to blend.

Step 4

Divide chicken mixture among tortillas, top with cabbage and cilantro, then feta crema. Wrap up burrito-style and serve with more lime wedges.

Step 5

This was super tasty! If possible, I would give it 3.5 stars. I used pre-cooked chicken but otherwise followed all the steps. I found the spice blend a tad bland, so I added some salt to taste, chipotle chile powder, chopped jalapeno and a couple of spoonfuls of salsa. I also added some sliced radishes to the burritos. A very tasty meal; the feta crema definitely added something special.

Good flavors, though the texture was a little odd (probably because of the feta). It was very easy to put together - only took 35 minutes, just like the recipe said. Saved some calories by using light sour cream and light feta, and added some fiber with whole wheat tortillas.
