Start with a large flour tortilla.

Spread a layer of refried beans on the tortilla, like making a pizza.

Sauté zucchini, poblano peppers, onions, and garlic until softened.

Chop all fillings small to avoid pulling out large pieces when biting.

Add poached and seasoned chicken to the tortilla.

Sprinkle queso cheese over the fillings.

Prepare a simple pico de gallo with tomato, cilantro, lime, and salt.

Fold the tortilla like a package to enclose the fillings.

Heat a skillet on high with a little oil left from sautéing the vegetables.

Place the burrito in the skillet and grill it lightly to toast and melt the cheese, about a couple of minutes on each side.

Cut the burrito in half to reveal the colorful insides.

Serve with salsa verde on top.
