6 chicken thighs
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups panko bread crumbs
1.5 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 eggs
5 slices whole milk mozzarella cheese
spring mix
olive oil
Filipino vinegar
2 tortillas

1

Lay out 6 chicken thighs on a flat surface.

2

Cover the chicken thighs with cling film and pound them flat using a heavy object, like a cast iron skillet.

3

Remove the cling film and season the chicken with 2 teaspoons of salt and Italian seasoning.

4

Let the seasoned chicken sit for about 5 minutes.

5

Prepare the breading station with 2 eggs scrambled in one pan, panko bread crumbs mixed with 1.5 tablespoons of Italian seasoning in another, and add 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese to the bread crumbs.

6

Bread the chicken by dipping it in the egg wash and then coating it with the bread crumbs, placing the breaded chicken on a separate pan.

7

Heat a mixture of avocado oil and extra virgin olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat, enough to cover the bottom of the pan.

8

Fry the breaded chicken for about 3 minutes per side until golden brown, then transfer to a paper towel-lined sheet.

9

Slice about 5 pieces of whole milk mozzarella cheese.

10

Prepare a bed of spring mix and dress it with olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt, mixing with hands.

11

Lay out 2 tortillas for the burrito.

12

Place the dressed spring mix on the tortillas, followed by the fried chicken, marinara sauce, and mozzarella cheese.

13

Broil the assembled burrito for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is melted.

14

Carefully wrap the burrito, tucking in the edges.

15

Brown the burrito on both sides in a large pan or under the broiler until golden.
