Ingredients
  

For the Ranch Sauce
  • 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.25 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp ranch seasoning mix
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro (chopped) for flavor
For the Burrito Filling
  • 2 cups cooked chicken (diced or shredded)
  • 2 ripe avocados (sliced) toss with lime juice
  • 6 large flour tortillas warmed
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella (or pepper jack) for extra flavor
  • 0.5 cup diced red onion
  • 1 packet taco seasoning for seasoning the chicken
  • Salt and pepper optional to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, ranch seasoning mix, lime juice, garlic, and cilantro until smooth. Chill while prepping other ingredients.
  2. Warm cooked chicken in a skillet with taco seasoning. If using raw chicken, cook it fully first, then shred or dice it.
  3. Slice the avocados and toss them with lime juice to keep them fresh. Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave until pliable.
Assembly
  1. On each warm tortilla, spread about 2 tbsp of ranch sauce. Layer with chicken, avocado, mozzarella, red onion, and cilantro. Add a squeeze of lime juice if desired.
  2. Roll up each burrito, tucking in the sides. Toast seam-side down in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes until golden and warmed through.
Serving
  1. Cut the burritos in half diagonally. Serve with extra ranch sauce and lime wedges.

Notes

These burritos can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days and freeze well for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven for best results.
