Ingredients

For the chicken:

  • Cornflakes crushed
  • Flour
  • Egg
  • Thin chicken cutlets
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Fry oil of choice
  • Franks red hot
  • 2 tbsp butter

The blue cheese “sauce”:

  • 2 tbsp of sour cream or yogurt
  • Blue cheese crumbles
  • Chopped chives
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper

The rest:

  • Tortilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 avocado
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions 

  • Add corn flakes to a plastic bag and smash until they are crushed. Add your fry ingredients to 3 bowls: flour, eggs and cornflakes. Starting with the flour, then eggs, then cornflakes, coat chicken slices. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining slices of chicken.
  • Add fry oil to a large skillet. While that heats up, melt hot sauce and butter in a small pot. When oil reaches 350, add chicken. Cook for about 2-3 min per side or until chicken is a deep golden brown. Transfer to a cooling rack and top with buffalo sauce. Chop chicken into cubes.
  • Add butter to a hot skillet. Whisk eggs in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add to skillet. After about 30 seconds, fold eggs toward center of pan and turn off heat. Let eggs finish cooking through.
  • Slice avocado and make blue cheese sauce. Add mozzarella to the tortilla along with crispy chicken. Add avocado slices, sauce and eggs. Fold tortilla.
  • Add a little butter to a pan and add folded tortilla. Using a press (if you have one) let burrito cook for about 2-3 min per side or until golden brown and melty. Slice in half and enjoy!

Notes

Notes: These buffalo burritos are easily prepped a day ahead and warmed up right before storing. For freshest results when making ahead, opt for no avcoado, and limit buffalo and sour cream sauce inside the burrito. We suggest serving the sauces on the side in this case.
