Cafe Rio-Copy Cat

 
Posted by Picasa


This Burrito is so delicious, and very filling. Perfect for a crowd or just your own family. I love the combinations of the flavors, it makes for a perfect bite every time. You can count on having leftovers.

Cafe Rio Chicken
5 lbs chicken
1 bottle italian dressing(I like Newman's Own)
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 Tablspoon cumin
3 cloves minced garlic
Cook in crock pot 4 hours to all day

Cafe Rio Rice
4 teaspoons garlic minced
2 cups uncooked rice
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 can green chiles
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon butter
1/2 onion
4 cups chicken broth
Put cilantro, chiles, and onion in food processor then add to the rice. Cook rice in rice cooker, or on stove top.

Cafe Rio Dressing
1 cup mayonaise(I don't use a substitute when it comes to mayo)
1 cup fat free sour cream(can use full fat for a thicker dressing, and same flavor)
5 sprigs cilantro
2 tomatillos
1 green onion, chopped
1 clove garlic
1 jalapeno, with seeds
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 teaspoon salt
Mix all together in food processor. Let sit in fridge at least an hour before serving, for the flavors to combine.

Layer the rice, chicken, cheese(I use Pepper Jack), dressing, lettuce, tomato and wrap in a large tortilla. Goes great with Guacamole too.
