Ingredients

  • 500 g chicken breast (cooked and shredded)
  • 250 g avocado (ripe)
  • 30 g light cream cheese
  • 30 g light mayonnaise
  • 7 flour tortillas
  • 1 onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 lime or lemon juice (for the filling)
  • salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • 250 g whipped fresh cheese or Greek yogurt (for the sauce)
  • fresh cilantro (to taste, chopped)
  • 2 g cumin
  • 1 diente garlic
  • 0.5 lime juice (for the sauce)
  • cheddar cheese (for the crispy crust (optional))

Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the chicken breast (you can boil it or grill it) and shred it completely.

  2. 2

    To prepare the yogurt sauce, place the whipped fresh cheese (or Greek yogurt), the garlic clove, fresh cilantro to taste, cumin, salt, black pepper, and the juice of half a lime in a container.

  3. 3

    Whisk the sauce mixture well until you get a smooth texture and set aside.

  4. 4

    In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the avocado, chopped cilantro, chopped onion, light cream cheese, and light mayonnaise.

  5. 5

    Add the juice of one lime, salt, and pepper to taste to the chicken mixture. Mash and mix everything well until the ingredients are well combined.

  6. 6

    Lay out the flour tortillas and place a portion of the chicken and avocado filling in the center of each one.

  7. 7

    Close the burritos by folding the sides inward and rolling tightly.

  8. 8

    For a crispy touch, put a bit of cheddar cheese in a hot skillet. When it starts to melt, place the burrito on top so a golden, crispy crust forms.

  9. 9

    Serve the burritos accompanied by the previously prepared yogurt sauce.
