step by step

Method

  1. Season and cook the chicken

    • Season the chopped chicken with the Cajun seasoning, paprika, salt and black pepper.
    • Add a little avocado oil to a pan and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through.
    • Set the chicken aside.
    Step 1
  2. Make the Alfredo sauce

    • In the same pan, melt the butter and add the garlic.
    • Cook for a minute, then pour in the heavy cream.
    • Season with salt and pepper and simmer until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
    Step 2
  3. Prepare the filling

    • Add the cooked chicken, all of the Alfredo sauce, the mozzarella, parmesan and chopped parsley to a bowl.
    • Mix until nice and creamy.
    • Let the mixture cool slightly before filling the tortillas.
    Step 3
  4. Fill and roll the burritos

    • Fill each tortilla with the chicken Alfredo mixture and roll it up like a mini burrito, tucking everything in.
    • Dip each burrito into the whisked egg, then coat completely in panko.
    Step 4
  5. Fry until crispy

    • Heat the oil to 165 °C.
    • Fry the burritos seam-side down until golden brown and crispy.
    • Let them cool for a minute before cutting in.
