Prep Time: 10 min | Cook Time: 5 min | Total Time: 15 min

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or grilled)
• 1 avocado, diced
• 1/4 cup ranch dressing
• 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1 cup chopped romaine lettuce (or spinach)

• 2 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Olive oil or butter for toasting

Step-by-Step Instructions (Detailed):

1. Prep the Chicken Mix
   In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ranch dressing, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well coated. Tip: Use warm chicken for best flavor absorption!
2. Add the Fresh Stuff
   Fold in the diced avocado, tomatoes, red onion, lettuce, and shredded cheese. This mix should be creamy but still chunky don’t overmix!
3. Assemble the Burritos
   Lay each tortilla flat. Spoon the chicken mixture into the center, then fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito.
4. Toast for Texture
   Heat a skillet over medium heat with a touch of olive oil or butter. Place burritos seam-side down and toast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy. This step adds that irresistible crunch!
