These wraps are a crowd-pleasing classic—perfect for a quick lunch, a busy weeknight dinner, or meal prep. They are incredibly versatile and can be served cold or pressed in a skillet for a crunchy finish.
π Prep & Cook Time
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes (if cooking chicken/bacon)
Total time: 25 minutes
Yields: 4 wraps
π Ingredients
The Core
Tortillas: 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size works best).
Chicken: 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or cubed (Rotisserie chicken is a great shortcut).
Bacon: 6–8 slices of bacon, cooked until crispy and chopped.
Ranch Dressing: ½ cup of your favorite brand (or homemade).
The Freshness
Cheese: 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack.
Lettuce: 2 cups shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce.
Tomatoes: 1 large tomato, diced.
Red Onion: 2 tablespoons finely diced (optional, for a kick).
Avocado: 1 ripe avocado, sliced (optional).
π©π³ Instructions
1. Prepare the Fillings
If you aren't using pre-cooked chicken, season chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then grill or pan-fry until done. Cook the bacon until crispy, drain on paper towels, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
2. Mix the Filling (Pro Tip)
In a medium bowl, toss the cooked chicken with half of the ranch dressing. This ensures every bite of chicken is flavorful and prevents the wrap from being dry.
3. Assemble the Wraps
Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface.
Spread a small amount of the remaining ranch in the center of each tortilla.
Layer the ingredients in this order: lettuce, tomato, cheesy chicken mixture, bacon, and avocado.
Folding: Fold the sides of the tortilla toward the center, then roll tightly from the bottom up.
4. Optional: The "Crispy Finish"
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a tiny bit of butter or oil. Place the wraps seam-side down in the pan. Grill for 1–2 minutes per side until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese inside is melted.
π‘ Variations & Tips
Buffalo Style: Add 2 tablespoons of Buffalo sauce to the chicken for a spicy "Buffalo Chicken Bacon Ranch" version.
Low Carb: Use large lettuce leaves (like Butter or Romaine) instead of flour tortillas to make lettuce wraps.
Meal Prep: If making these ahead of time, keep the ranch dressing in a separate small container and add it just before eating to prevent the wrap from getting soggy.
Healthier Swap: Use Greek yogurt-based ranch dressing and turkey bacon to reduce the calorie count.
