Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tbsp lime juice
Instructions
- 1. Cook the Chicken: Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing.
- 2. Prepare the Avocado: Slice avocados, scoop into a bowl, and mash with a fork. Mix in lime juice to prevent browning.
- 3. Mix It Up: In another bowl, combine shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, ranch dressing, and mashed avocado.
- 4. Assemble Burritos: Lay tortillas flat; place sliced chicken down the center and spoon avocado-ranch mixture on top.
- 5. Roll It Up: Fold in sides of tortillas and roll tightly to seal.
- 6. Serve: Plate the burritos or wrap in foil for on-the-go enjoyment. Drizzle with extra ranch dressing if desired.
