Chicken Fry fit for a Burrito

I like eating at Chipotle especially while at work when I don't pack lunch. Of all the fast food places this is by far my favorite and particularly their concept of Burrito Bowl be it Veggie or any meat of choice. I have been trying to cook a chicken fry that could be used in a Burrito bowl and I think I have it now but on this particular day I did not make the Burrito Bowl but the post cannot wait if it has to make it to the Express Cooking Event. I prefer chicken meat with bones in them especially the thighs because it seems to have more taste but boneless chicken breast or thighs would work fine too (much less work).

If we are counting the time to cook this dish, it takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish. So this would be perfect for Mallugirl's Express Cooking Event
