Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • ½ cup Mexican cheese blend (or mozzarella)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon oil

 

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cheese, avocado, and cilantro.
  2. Place a tortilla flat on a surface. Add about ¼ of the filling mixture to the center and roll it up like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the burritos seam-side down in the pan and cook for about 2 minutes or until golden and crisp. Flip and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes.
  5. Serve warm.

 

Storage Tip:

  • These burritos can be frozen—either before or after cooking—for up to 3 months.
