These come together with just 15 min prep! You can also make this ahead of time and bake right before serving. SO EASY!
Living in Los Angeles for the last 16 years, it’s no surprise that I love a good burrito. And when I say a good burrito, I mean one of those burritos from a street vendor – the ones where they pile on the cheese, the sour cream and the avocado.
So that’s exactly what we have here – in moderation. Except let’s pile on the avocado and Ranch dressing while we’re at it. You always need a good dosage of Ranch dressing in a burrito, right?
And since it’s Memorial Day and all, go ahead and serve this up with a pitcher of margaritas.
Chicken and Avocado Ranch Burritos
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch chunks*
- 1 (1.25-ounce) package taco seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 burrito-size flour tortillas, 10 inches each
- 2 avocados, halved, peeled, seeded and diced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup Ranch dressing
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a cast iron grill pan over medium heat. Season chicken thighs with taco seasoning. Add chicken to the skillet and cook until golden, about 3-4 minutes; set aside.
- Heat tortillas according to package instructions.
- Working one at a time, place chicken, avocado, cheese, sour cream, Ranch and cilantro in the center of each tortilla. Bring the bottom edge of the tortilla tightly over the filling, folding in the sides. Continue rolling until the top of the tortilla is reached. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Serve immediately.

These were fantastic! I just added some red onion and followed the recipe. It was a winner in my household!
I added tomato’s, red onion, lime juice to mine.
Amazing!! I have a child who is a picky eater and a husband who hates avocado and they both devoured these!! I doubled the chicken to make 5 super hearty burritos! Delicious! This recipe is now in my rotation!
Hadn’t made this for a while but was a big hit with the whole fam. Even my picky eaters. Great simple recipe came together quickly! Made as is.
So good! Hoping to find a calorie count but don’t see one. Is that information somewhere?
What’s the calories on these ,?
These were so easy. I cut my chicken up and tossed it in olive oil and the taco seasoning and cooked it in my air fryer. It’s becoming our new favorite. I want to try the ranch mix with non fat greek yogurt and see how that tastes.
What settings did you use for your air fryer?
This was SO GOOD! I used chicken breast. I used my homemade taco seasoning. I added diced tomato and diced onion while loading the tortilla. My husband loved it. I loved it. I’ll be using this recipe regularly. Thank you for a delicious meal!!
Absolutely easy and delicious, and the family loved them also.
want to try these..Was wondering if they can be frozen??
These are soooooo good and easy!!! I did not have ranch dressing but did have hidden valley ranch dip packets so I just added that to sour cream and used that and it was DELICIOUS!! I also did the bake option just because it was easier and I mean these were a huge hit! Left the ranch/sour cream combo out of one as one in the family dsnt like it and that still tasted awesome!! And these heat up well the next day as left overs 🙂 Will definitely be making again and posting photos on insta! Will be sure to tag you! Thanks for the awesome recipe!
I always put my own twist on recipes so I added some stuff and cooked it a bit different. Oh boy!! Not that it needed anything added. I used everything on the recipe list + but it’s amazing no matter what!!!
Is this the calorie count per burrito, or four all four?
Have not made these yet, but was wondering if it’s possible to sub the chicken with black beans and rice? Would it still taste ok? If so, how much rice and how much black beans would be sufficient?
Thanks!
AMAZING!! Added to our Taco Tuesday rotation. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!
This is truly damn delicious ! I had two burritos even though I was full after one because the heart wanted more while the stomach was fulfilled
This was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it. I think some pico de Gallo would be good in it as well!
My husband used that with his and loved it!
Yummy
It was amazing. Super easy and fast to make. The family loved it.
I consider myself a pretty terrible cook so I’m always looking for easy recipes that I can’t mess up. These are AWESOME! Even my picky husband liked them. So yummy!!!
Oh we love that you enjoyed it!
They were a hit with my boys. Seconds were a must! I will try grilling the wrapped burritos to melt the cheese next time.
Yum, that’s a good idea. Thanks for sharing Celeste!
I made the chicken avocado ranch burrito……AMAZING!!! I am not a cook by no means, I actually hate to cook but since I started cooking I’m trying different recipes and the family ate this up! Prep time was more than 15 minutes but the dish was awesome!
