# Steps:
01 -
Heat tortillas for a few seconds in a dry skillet over medium-low heat until soft and pliable for folding.
02 -
Divide ingredients evenly among tortillas: place about ½ cup shredded lettuce, ⅓ cup grilled chicken, ¼ cup shredded cheese, 3 tablespoons diced tomatoes, and ⅛ of a diced avocado in the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with crunchy tortilla strips and add 1 tablespoon each of chipotle ranch and avocado ranch dressings.
03 -
Fold the sides of each tortilla inward then roll tightly to enclose the fillings securely.
04 -
Lightly spray a frying pan with cooking spray and warm over medium heat. Place burritos seam-side down in batches if necessary, cooking a few minutes per side until golden brown and toasted.
05 -
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Optionally accompany with cilantro lime or cantina rice and Mexican style black beans. Drizzle additional avocado or chipotle ranch dressing as desired.
# Tips:
01 -
For best texture, assemble burritos just before eating as sauces and fresh ingredients can cause sogginess if stored assembled.
