Chicken Ranch Wraps with Lettuce are a delightful and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for lunch or dinner. This recipe combines juicy chicken breasts, fresh lettuce, and creamy ranch dressing, all wrapped in soft tortillas. It's a quick and nutritious option that the whole family will enjoy.
Instructions:
- Start by cutting the chicken breasts into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.
2. Cook the Chicken:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken pieces to the skillet.
- Cook the chicken for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the skillet from the heat and let the chicken cool slightly.
- Transfer the cooked chicken into a mixing bowl.
- Add the ranch dressing to the chicken and toss to coat all the pieces evenly.
- Warm the tortillas by either heating them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20-30 seconds on each side, or microwaving them for about 10 seconds.
- Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface.
- Add a portion of the shredded lettuce (about ½ cup) in the center of the tortilla.
- Spoon approximately one-eighth of the chicken mixture on top of the lettuce.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to create a wrap.
- Repeat the assembling process for the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Serve the chicken ranch wraps immediately, or wrap them in foil for a handy on-the-go meal.
Tips:
- For added flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in your favorite spices or a bit of garlic before cooking.
- Use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas for a healthier option.
- Add extra veggies like tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers for a more nutritious wrap.
- For a bit of crunch, consider adding some croutons or sunflower seeds.
- If you prefer a spicier wrap, drizzle some hot sauce or add sliced jalapeños to the mix.
- Make sure the chicken is cut into even pieces to ensure they cook uniformly.
With these simple steps, you can create a delicious and satisfying Chicken Ranch Wrap that's perfect for any meal. Enjoy the fresh combination of chicken, lettuce, and ranch dressing, all wrapped up in a soft tortilla. It's an excellent dish for a quick lunch or an easy dinner.
