Best ways to enjoy it

These burritos shine on their own, but they pair wonderfully with sides like cilantro lime rice, fresh guacamole, or a zesty corn salad. To elevate your meal, consider adding a fresh pico de gallo or a crisp green salad. For a full feast, serve with tortilla chips and extra chipotle ranch sauce for dipping.

Storage and reheating tips

If you find yourself with leftovers (although it’s hard to imagine!), you can store these burritos in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them in the microwave for a minute or two. If you want to maintain that delicious, crispy exterior, try reheating them in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes on each side.

Helpful cooking tips

• Grilling the burritos adds a lovely crispy texture, but be sure to keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.
• Don’t skip the seasoning on the chicken; it’s essential for flavor.
• Let your burritos rest for a minute or two after grilling to help the cheese melt and the filling set.

Creative twists

Feeling adventurous? You can experiment with different fillings to suit your taste. Try adding sautéed mushrooms, black beans, or even a spicy pepper jack cheese for an extra kick. For those looking for a healthier option, consider using whole wheat tortillas or leafy greens as wraps.
