Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prep and heat

    Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with olive oil and warm until pliable, about 1 minute per side.

  2. 2

    Assemble tortillas

    Lay one tortilla on the skillet. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup cheese on the bottom half, add a layer of grilled chicken, then top with the remaining cheese. Fold the tortilla over to enclose the filling.

  3. 3

    Cook until melted

    Cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown on both sides, about 2–3 minutes per side. Flip carefully to avoid the filling from spilling.

  4. 4

    Dress and serve

    Top with avocado slices, pico de gallo, and chopped cilantro. Add a dollop of sour cream if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
