Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts and rub in evenly. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Place seasoned chicken on a lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until cooked through.
  4. While chicken bakes, mash avocado with lime juice in a bowl. In another bowl, mix ranch dressing and sour cream.
  5. Once done, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Warm the flour tortillas to make them pliable.
  7. Spread ranch mixture on each tortilla. Layer with shredded chicken, avocado, cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes, and cilantro.
  8. Fold sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly. Optionally, crisp the seams in a skillet for a couple of minutes.
  9. Serve warm, optionally drizzling extra ranch on the side.
