Instructions

Rub Chicken with ancho chile powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook Chicken in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Shred Chicken.
To make the Sauce, melt Butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in Milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in Hatch chiles, Monterey Jack cheese, and Cream cheese. Cook until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth.
In a bowl, combine shredded Chicken, rice, black beans, and corn.
Warm tortillas. Fill each tortilla with about 1/2 cup of the Chicken mixture.
Roll up burritos tightly. Place burritos seam-side down in a baking dish.
Pour Hatch chile Sauce over burritos, ensuring they are well coated. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
