Instructions

  1. Lay out one warmed burrito tortilla flat. Arrange about a quarter of the cooked chicken in a strip horizontally across the lower third, leaving space on the sides and bottom. Add about a quarter of the diced avocado over the chicken.
  2. Sprinkle about a quarter cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the chicken and avocado. Drizzle about a tablespoon of salsa verde over the cheese. Dollop about a tablespoon of sour cream or greek yogurt over the salsa verde.
  3. Sprinkle about half a tablespoon of chopped cilantro over the ingredients. Fold the left and right sides of the tortilla inward over the filling. Tightly roll the tortilla upward from the bottom edge.
  4. Repeat the assembly and rolling process for the remaining three tortillas, ensuring an even distribution of ingredients.
  5. Optional: Heat a lightly oiled skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place burritos seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crispy.

Notes

  1. Warm the tortillas for easy folding and sealing. Customize the fillings to suit your taste!
