Dinner Burrito High Protein Meal Prep

Ingredients

48 oz boneless skinless chicken thighs
10 burrito tortillas
finely sliced green onions

Marinade

6 3/10 oz sweet chili sauce
3 1/5 oz soy sauce
1 1/10 oz rice vinegar
0.53 oz sesame oil
to taste black pepper

Creamy Spicy Rice

8 1/2 oz sushi rice
7 1/10 oz plain skyr or Greek yogurt
1 1/10 oz sriracha or gochujang
to taste salt
to taste garlic

Instructions

1
In a large bowl, combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper to create the chicken marinade.
2
Add the chicken thighs to the bowl, toss to coat, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours) to let the flavors penetrate.
3
Heat a skillet over medium‑high heat; add the marinated chicken and cook until fully cooked through and lightly caramelized, about 8–10 minutes. Drain any excess liquid and set the chicken aside.
4
While the chicken cooks, rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear, then cook according to package directions (typically 1 cup rice to 1 ¼ cups water, simmer 12‑15 minutes, then rest 10 minutes).
5
When the rice is done, fluff it and stir in the plain skyr or Greek yogurt, sriracha (or gochujang), salt, and minced garlic until a creamy, spicy mixture forms.
6
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface, spoon a generous portion of the creamy spicy rice onto the center, then top with the cooked chicken and finely sliced green onions (add any extra toppings you like).
7
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly to form a burrito, sealing the edges. Repeat for all ten tortillas.
8
Wrap each burrito in parchment paper or foil and place them in a freezer‑safe container or zip‑top bag; freeze until needed.
9
To reheat, remove a burrito from the freezer, wrap it in a paper towel, microwave on high for 2 minutes, then crisp the tortilla by air‑frying at 375°F for 6‑8 minutes or pan‑frying until heated through.
10
Serve immediately and enjoy a protein‑packed, flavorful meal.
