Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Cook in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and fully cooked.
Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice or shred.

2. Make the Avocado Ranch Sauce

In a bowl, mash the avocados until smooth.
Stir in ranch dressing and a squeeze of lime juice for extra tanginess.

3. Assemble the Burritos

Lay a tortilla flat and spread a layer of avocado ranch sauce.
Add chicken, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions.
Fold the sides in and roll tightly to form a burrito.

4. Cook the Burritos

Grill: Place on a hot grill for 2-3 minutes per side.
Pan-fry: Cook in a skillet with a little oil until golden brown.
Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 10 minutes.

Notes

Warm tortillas before rolling to prevent cracking.

Don’t overstuff to keep burritos from falling apart.

For extra crunch, add crispy bacon or tortilla chips inside.

Make ahead and store in the fridge or freezer for easy meal prep.
