Cook the Rice: Rinse sushi rice until water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a pot, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently fold into the cooked rice and let cool.
Cook the Chicken: Season chicken thighs with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C). Shred the chicken.
Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine all Sauce ingredients. Add the shredded chicken to the sauce and toss to coat.
Assemble the Burritos: Lay a tortilla flat. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese down the center. Top with a layer of sushi rice, then the buffalo chicken. Add shredded carrots and lettuce.
Roll the Burrito: Tightly roll the tortilla, tucking in the sides as you go. Cut in half and serve.
