How to make it
- Warm the cream cheese in a saucepan over low to medium-low heat, stirring until softened. Add the shredded cheese gradually and stir until melted.
- Mix in the ranch dip mix, green chiles and diced jalapeños. Stir until combined and creamy; add a little water if the sauce needs thinning.
- Heat the chargrilled chipotle chicken according to its package directions. Divide the 2 lb package into six portions, about 151 g each.
- Weigh the finished sauce. If it makes at least 600 g, use 100 g per burrito. If it makes less, divide what you have evenly rather than assuming the full amount.
- Place one tortilla flat, add one portion of chicken and sauce, fold in the sides and roll tightly. Repeat for all six burritos.
- If you like, toast the burritos in a skillet until golden on both sides. Cool and wrap individually or place in airtight containers before refrigerating or freezing. Reheat following the guidance below.
Storage & reheating
Keep cooked meat or poultry leftovers in a refrigerator at 40°F (4°C) or below and use within 3–4 days. Freeze any portions you won't use in that window. Reheat leftovers to 165°F (74°C), checked with a food thermometer.
