Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 1 ripe avocado (diced)
- ½ cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- ¼ cup ranch dressing
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
To Assemble
- 4 large flour tortillas
For Grilling
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
To Serve
- Fresh lime wedges
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked chicken, diced avocado, shredded cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, and black pepper. Gently mix until all ingredients are evenly coated and blended.
- Assemble the burritos: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly divide the chicken filling among the four tortillas, placing it in the center of each. Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll them tightly into burritos.
- Heat the skillet and grill: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the burritos seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the burritos from the skillet and serve warm with fresh lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the burritos to add a tangy brightness.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, or a splash of hot sauce to the filling.
- You can use a panini press instead of a skillet to crisp the burritos evenly.
- These burritos are great options for lunch, dinner, or meal prep since they can be made ahead and reheated.
