Instructions:
- Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts.
- Shred the cheddar cheese if not pre-shredded.
- Finely chop the onion.
- Shred the lettuce if not pre-shredded.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper (optional).
- Bake the chicken breasts for 20-25 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken cool slightly and then slice it into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.
- While the chicken is baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
- Drain the bacon on paper towels and crumble into small pieces once it has cooled.
- Lay out the tortillas on a clean, flat surface.
- Evenly distribute the shredded lettuce among the tortillas, placing it in the center of each.
- Add a portion of the sliced chicken on top of the lettuce.
- Sprinkle the finely chopped onion over the chicken.
- Add a sprinkle of the shredded cheddar cheese over the onions.
- Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing over the filled ingredients on each tortilla.
- Sprinkle the bacon pieces over the ranch dressing.
- Fold the sides of each tortilla in toward the center, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top to secure all the ingredients inside.
- Slice the wraps in half, if desired, for easier eating or better presentation.
- Serve immediately, or wrap each in parchment paper or foil to keep fresh until ready to eat.
Tips:
- Cook the chicken breasts thoroughly to ensure they are juicy and tender. You can grill, bake, or pan-fry them according to your preference.
- Cook the bacon until it is crispy for the best texture and flavor contrast in the wrap.
- Use fresh lettuce to add a nice crunch to the wrap. Romaine or iceberg works well.
- Warm the tortillas slightly in a pan or microwave for easier wrapping and a softer texture.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of ranch dressing to suit your taste. You can add more or less depending on how creamy you want the wraps to be.
- If you like, you can also add other ingredients like tomatoes, avocado, or peppers for extra flavor and nutrients.
- For a healthier version, you can use whole-wheat tortillas and low-fat cheddar cheese.
