- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1/3 cup ranch dressing
- 1 1/2 cups Mexican blend cheeses (divided)
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (, chopped)
- 6 8 inch uncooked flour tortillas ((I prefer the tortilla land brand))

- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Instruction
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Season chicken pieces all over with chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin and salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken pieces and cook, turning once, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove to a plate, allow to rest for a few minutes and then shred into small pieces.
- Place chicken in a large bowl. Add ranch, 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, and cilantro.
- Place a big spoonful of filling down the center of each tortilla.
- Bring the bottom edge of the tortilla tightly over the filling, folding in the sides and rolling it up into a burrito.
- Place burritos on lined baking sheet and brush them with olive oil or spray with non stick cooking spray.
- Bake at 400°F for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Meanwhile, prepare sauce by melting butter and olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes.
- Add cumin. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in ranch seasoning and sour cream.
- Remove burritos from oven and turn the oven to HIGH broil.
- Ladle a spoonful of sauce over each burrito and top with a handful of shredded cheese.
- Broil for 2-3 minutes, or is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven and top with diced avocados and tomatoes. Enjoy!
