Description

Hearty and satisfying chicken and avocado ranch burritos perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, packed with shredded chicken, creamy avocado, fresh lettuce, cheese, and ranch dressing all wrapped in warm tortillas.


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

Wraps

  • 4 large tortillas


Instructions

  1. Prepare the tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean, dry surface to assemble the burritos.
  2. Add filling ingredients: Evenly distribute the shredded chicken, sliced avocado, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and ranch dressing onto each tortilla.
  3. Wrap the burritos: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from one end to form each burrito securely.
  4. Optional toasting: For a slightly crispy texture, lightly toast the burritos in a skillet over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Serve: Slice the burritos in half if desired and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Add diced tomatoes or cooked bacon to enhance the flavor and texture.
  • Using grilled chicken adds a smoky flavor that complements the creamy avocado and ranch.
  • The toasting step is optional but recommended for added crunchiness.
