Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or chopped)
- 1 ripe avocado (diced)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wrap
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, diced avocado, cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, ranch dressing, cilantro, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well coated but avocado pieces remain slightly chunky.
- Assemble Burritos: Lay out the tortillas and evenly divide the filling among them. Fold in the sides, then roll each tortilla tightly into a burrito shape.
- Cook Burritos: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place each burrito seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until the outside is golden brown and crisp.
- Serve: Slice the burritos and serve warm with extra ranch dressing or salsa for dipping, if desired.
Notes
- For added flavor, use grilled or rotisserie chicken instead of plain cooked chicken.
- These burritos can be made ahead of time and refrigerated. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
- Adjust the seasoning and ranch dressing quantity according to taste preferences.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
