Ingredients
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/3 cup ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
Wrap
- 4 large tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface to make assembling the burritos easier and prevent tearing.
- Add Filling: Evenly distribute the shredded chicken, avocado slices, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and ranch dressing onto the center of each tortilla.
- Fold and Roll: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly into burritos to enclose the filling securely.
- Optional Toasting: Heat a skillet over medium heat and toast each burrito for about 2-3 minutes per side until lightly crispy and golden brown for added texture and warmth.
- Slice and Serve: Remove the burritos from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Add diced tomatoes or crispy bacon for an extra burst of flavor and texture.
- Use grilled chicken instead of shredded rotisserie for a smoky taste.
- For a spicier version, add jalapeños or hot sauce inside the burritos.
- Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to accommodate dietary preferences.
