– 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken

Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Seven Layer Chicken Burritos:
1. Prepare the Chicken: In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken and taco seasoning. Stir until the chicken is well-coated and heated through, about 5 minutes.
2. Warm the Tortillas: Gently warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave. This will make them easier to roll.
3. Build the Burritos: On each tortilla, layer the following:
– A portion of the seasoned chicken
– A layer of black beans
– A layer of corn
– Diced tomatoes
– Shredded lettuce
– Shredded cheese
– A dollop of sour cream
– Diced avocado
4. Roll the Burritos: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to enclose all the filling.
5. Toast (Optional): For added texture, you can toast the rolled burritos in the same skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. Slice and Serve: Cut the burrito in half diagonally to showcase the vibrant layers inside.
By following these steps, you’ll have a delicious and visually appealing meal ready to enjoy in just minutes.
