Ingredients:
Preparation Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the paneer cubes and sprinkle with smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt. Cook until the paneer is golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the onion, red and green bell peppers, and garlic until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
- Warm the flour tortillas according to package instructions to make them pliable.
- Assemble the burritos: On each tortilla, layer the brown rice, black beans, corn, sautéed vegetables, cooked paneer, fresh cilantro, avocado slices, a dollop of sour cream, and salsa.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll up tightly to enclose.
- Serve each burrito with a wedge of lime to squeeze over just before eating.
