  • 2 tsp sriracha
  • dash of salt pepper, and paprika
  • 3 burrito flour tortillas
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine chicken, cream cheese, ranch, cheese, sriracha, and seasoning. Mix by hand or with a hand mixer until combined.
  • Spread the mixture evenly on one half of a tortilla. Fold the tortilla over and press down gently.

Notes

  • Store the leftover chicken mixture in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge. 
  • You can freeze the mixture for up to 3 months, just let it thaw before spreading onto tortillas. 
  • Pro tip: Use rotisserie chicken for quick and easy shredded chicken.
