## Tips

- Marinate the chicken as long as you can (overnight for best results).
- Toast the burrito in the pan (optionally with butter) folded side down to seal it.
- Allow the burritos to cool before wrapping in foil.
- To reheat, remove foil, wrap in a decently damp paper towel, and microwave for 3-4 minutes from the fridge or 7-8 minutes from the freezer, flipping halfway. Unwrap carefully, then air-fry or toast in the pan for a couple of minutes until crispy.
