👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Add all the chipotle honey mustard sauce ingredients to a small blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to the fridge to cool and thicken.

Freeze string cheese and freeze for at least 30 minutes. Season both sides of the chicken with Cajun seasoning. Air fry at 400°F for 9 to 10 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes, then dice into small pieces.
- 3
Air fry the whole jalapeños at 400°F for 5 to 7 minutes, until softened and lightly charred. Let cool, then remove the stems and seeds and dice into small pieces.
- 4
Add the chicken, jalapeños, Greek yogurt, Laughing Cow wedges, ranch dip mix, and part-skim mozzarella to a large bowl. Mix until combined, then fold in the black beans, corn, and pico.
- 5
Cut each frozen mozzarella stick in half lengthwise.
- 6
Lay a tortilla flat and add 1/12 of the filling to the center. Place two mozzarella stick halves along the outside edges, then fold and roll tightly. Repeat for all 12 burritos.

Spray both sides of each burrito with cooking spray. Air fry at 400°F for 4 minutes, until golden and crispy. Serve with the chipotle honey mustard sauce and enjoy!
💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Freeze the string cheese for at least 30 minutes before assembly so it holds its shape during air frying instead of melting out through the tortilla seams; frozen dairy melts more slowly since heat must first overcome the latent heat of fusion before the cheese liquefies.ingredient30 minutes freeze time
- ✓Air fry the whole jalapeños at 400°F for 5-7 minutes rather than dicing them raw, because the dry heat softens the cell walls and caramelizes surface sugars, mellowing capsaicin's sharp heat while developing a smoky depth.technique400°F for 5-7 minutes
- ✓Let the diced air-fried chicken rest for 10 minutes before mixing into the filling so residual carryover cooking finishes evenly and juices redistribute, preventing a watery filling that would make the tortillas soggy.timing10 minute rest
- ✓Roll the burritos tightly with the seam side down and spray both sides evenly with cooking spray before air frying, since a thin oil layer promotes Maillard browning at 400°F in just 4 minutes without needing deep frying.technique400°F for 4 minutes
- ✓Chill the chipotle honey mustard sauce in the fridge before serving so its emulsified fats firm slightly, thickening the dip to a coatable consistency instead of running off the crispy burrito exterior.ingredientrefrigerate until thickened
