Cheesy Chicken Avocado 

Cheesy Chicken Avocado Wraps

Ingredients (makes 3–4 wraps):

• 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a Mexican blend)
• 2–3 tbsp sour cream or cream cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 3–4 large flour tortillas
• Butter or oil, for toasting (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prep the filling:
   In a bowl, mix the cooked chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper. Optionally, mix in sour cream or cream cheese and chopped cilantro.
2. Assemble the wraps:
   Lay a tortilla flat. Layer with shredded cheese, avocado slices, and the chicken mixture. Sprinkle a little more cheese if desired.
3. Wrap it up:
   Roll the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go to make a burrito-style wrap.
4. Toast (optional but recommended):
   Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Toast the wraps seam-side down for 2–3 minutes on each side, until golden and the cheese is melted.
5. Serve:
   Slice in half and serve warm with salsa, sour cream, or a dipping sauce of your choice.

Absolutely! Here’s a more detailed breakdown of each step and ingredient for the Cheesy Chicken Avocado Wraps:

Ingredients Explained:

• Cooked Chicken (2 cups):
  You can use rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken breasts, or leftover cooked chicken. Just chop or shred it into bite-sized pieces.
• Avocado (1 large):
  Slice it right before assembling to avoid browning. Ripe avocado adds creaminess and healthy fats.
• Shredded Cheese (1 cup):
  Cheddar melts well and has a nice flavor. You can also use Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or a Mexican blend for variety.
• Sour Cream or Cream Cheese (2–3 tbsp, optional):
  This is mixed with the chicken for extra creaminess. Cream cheese makes it rich; sour cream gives it a slight tang.
• Fresh Cilantro (2 tbsp, optional):
  Adds a fresh, herbaceous note. If you don’t like cilantro, you can skip it or use parsley.
• Salt and Pepper:
  Basic seasoning—adjust to your taste.
• Tortillas (3–4 large):
  Use soft flour tortillas. They’re easier to wrap and toast than corn tortillas.
• Butter or Oil (for toasting):
  This step makes the wraps crispy on the outside and helps melt the cheese inside.

Detailed Steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken Mixture:
   In a bowl, combine your cooked chicken with salt, pepper, and optionally sour cream/cream cheese and chopped cilantro. Mix it so it’s evenly coated.
2. Assemble the Wrap:
   Lay out your tortilla.
   
   • First, sprinkle a layer of cheese.
   • Then add the avocado slices.
   • Finally, spoon on the chicken mixture.
   • Optionally, add another sprinkle of cheese for extra meltiness.
4. Wrap It Tight:
   Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up, tightly but gently, to keep everything inside.
5. Toast the Wrap (Optional but Delicious):
   Heat a skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of butter or oil, and place the wrap seam-side down. Cook for about 2–3 minutes per side until it’s golden brown and the cheese is melted.
6. Serve:
   Cut the wrap in half and serve it hot. You can pair it with salsa, guacamole, ranch, or a chipotle mayo dipping sauce.
