Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Marinade

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Wrap Fillings

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups fresh lettuce, chopped
  • 1 cup tomatoes, diced
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Sauce

  • ½ cup ranch dressing

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. Add the chicken breasts and toss them in the marinade until fully coated, ensuring the flavors penetrate the meat.
  2. Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and beautiful grill marks appear.
  3. Slice the Chicken: Remove the grilled chicken from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes to retain juices. Then slice the chicken into thin strips for easy assembling.
  4. Prepare the Wraps: Lay out the large flour tortillas on a clean surface. Begin by layering chopped lettuce evenly on each tortilla, followed by diced tomatoes and sliced bell peppers to add freshness and color.
  5. Add Cheese & Chicken: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the layered vegetables, then place generous portions of the sliced grilled chicken strips on top.
  6. Dress and Wrap: Drizzle ranch dressing over the fillings. Carefully wrap the tortilla tightly from one end to another, ensuring the fillings are snugly enclosed to prevent any spillage. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Marinate the chicken overnight for deeper flavor infusion.
  • Toasting the tortillas lightly before assembling adds extra texture and flavor.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
  • Reheat leftovers in a skillet over medium heat to restore crispiness.
  • Swap vegetables or add sauces like spicy mayo or avocado for personalization.
