Skillet Chicken and Avocado Burritos

In the mood for a light meal? Try these Skillet Chicken and Avocado Burritos, their crisp tortillas are filled with chicken, avocado and cheese. They are quick and easy with only 7 ingredients. Serves 4 Total Time: 20 minutes 

Ingredients:

3 skinless boneless chicken breasts 
1 tablespoon butter 
1 tablespoon olive oil 
2 avocados, diced 
1 lime, juiced
1/2 lb shredded Mexican cheese blend 
8 flour tortillas 
Garnish: diced tomatoes (optional)
Serve: sour cream, green Mexican salsa (optional)

Directions: 

In a large skillet melt the butter and oil until hot. Add the chicken and cook on med/high heat until internal temperature reaches 160F. Shred and set aside. 

In a bowl toss the diced avocados with the lime juice. 

Butter one side of the tortillas. On your dry, hot skillet cook one tortilla at a time until just hot and soft on both sides. Remove to a solid surface. On the unbuttered side place 1/8th of the chicken,  avocado and cheese; then fold one end and roll. Heat until slightly crispy. Repeat with remaining burritos.
