Tips
- I seared my chicken in two batches. For each batch, use 15g (1 Tbsp) of olive oil
- I used ~180g of filling per burrito. The amount to evenly distribute across 14 burritos may vary when you prepare yours, so I recommend weighing the entire batch of filling and dividing by 14 to get the weight-per-burrito
- I sear each burrito for 1-2 mins per side to brown the tortilla. This is optional, and I only recommend this approach if you’re going to ONLY microwave to reheat, otherwise, it isn’t necessary
- Recommended Reheat Technique: Remove from freezer, microwave for 2-3 minutes (should be softened, but not cooked 100% through), Heat pan over medium-high heat, add burrito to pan, Cook for 2-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through
