Instructions
Creating Chicken Avocado Ranch Burritos is a simple and enjoyable process. Follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: If you haven’t cooked the chicken yet, season it with salt and pepper and cook in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Shred the meat using two forks and set aside.
2. Avocado Mixture: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado. Mix in a little salt and pepper for seasoning.
3. Combine Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ranch dressing, diced tomatoes, and cilantro. Stir until well-mixed.
4. Warm Tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave until slightly warm and pliable.
5. Assemble Burritos: On each tortilla, spread a layer of mashed avocado followed by the chicken mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
6. Fold Tortillas: Carefully fold in the sides and then roll the tortilla from the bottom to enclose the filling securely.
7. Grill (Optional): For added texture, place the burritos seam-side down in a hot skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
8. Slice: Use a sharp knife to cut each burrito in half, showcasing the colorful filling.
9. Serve: Arrange on a plate and squeeze fresh lime juice over them, if desired.
