Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices of turkey bacon
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup romaine lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
- While the chicken is cooking, cook the turkey bacon in a skillet until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
- Lay out the flour tortillas and spread a generous tablespoon of ranch dressing on each.
- Add a layer of shredded lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes in the center of each tortilla.
- Place several strips of grilled chicken on top, followed by the turkey bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap.
- Slice each wrap in half and serve with extra ranch dressing for dipping.
Helpful Tips
- For an extra burst of flavor, marinate the chicken in ranch dressing for an hour before grilling.
- If you prefer, swap the flour tortillas with whole wheat or gluten-free options.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the ranch dressing for a spicy kick.
Storage Instructions
If you have leftovers, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Avoid adding the dressing if you plan to store your wraps to prevent them from becoming soggy. Simply add the dressing right before eating.
Ingredient Substitutions
- Use Greek yogurt instead of ranch dressing for a lighter option.
- Substitute cooked turkey or shredded rotisserie chicken if you’re short on time.
