Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced (grilled or rotisserie works great)
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes (or pico de gallo)
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
  • 1/2 cup black beans (rinsed and drained, optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Juice of 1/2 lime (optional but adds a nice zing)

To Assemble:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Olive oil or butter, for grilling

Instructions

1. Make the Filling

In a large bowl, mix:

  • Cooked chicken
  • Diced avocado
  • Cheese
  • Ranch dressing
  • Tomatoes
  • Cilantro (if using)
  • Black beans (if using)
  • Lime juice, salt, and pepper

Gently toss until everything is well combined, but the avocado still holds some texture.

2. Assemble the Burritos

  • Warm tortillas slightly (10–15 seconds in the microwave) to make them easier to fold.
  • Spoon the chicken avocado mixture evenly into the center of each tortilla.
  • Fold in the sides and roll up tightly like a burrito.

3. Grill (Optional but Recommended!)

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil or butter.
  • Place burritos seam-side down and grill 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

4. Serve

 

  • Slice in half and serve warm with extra ranch, salsa, or sour cream on the side.

Notes

  • Add shredded lettuce or sliced jalapeños for crunch or spice.
  • Swap ranch with chipotle mayo for a smoky kick.
  • Meal prepping? Wrap ungrilled burritos in foil and store in the fridge up to 3 days. Reheat and grill when ready!
