A Day at Home + Chicken Cilantro Burritos

via pinterest

Enjoying my leisurely day at home.
Wrote a letter. Sent a letter.
Finished another letter. Sent that one, too.
Ate homemade soup and buttered toast.
Showered at noon.
Daydreamed about Addie-girl.
Felt her kicking and saying hello.
Need to call Mom. Need to call Brooke.
But for now, enjoying the silence from my desk chair.
Writing, thinking, smiling, eating, dreaming.



Chicken Cilantro Burritos
from childhood

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
4 chicken breasts, thawed and cut into bite-sized pieces
S&P
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lemon + some zest if you're feeling citrusy

In a large nonstick pan, melt butter and olive oil together on medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Saute for two minutes or until onion has become translucent.

Add chicken and S&P. Cook until chicken is lightly browned and cooked through.

Stir in cilantro. Continue to cook for one minute.

Stir in lemon juice and zest.

Serve over rice or in tortillas with all the usual burrito fixin's (Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream, black beans, lettuce, tomato, etc.).
