Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless chicken breast cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime lime juice about 2 tablespoons
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder for ranch
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt for ranch
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper for ranch
  • 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 large flour tortillas burrito-size
  • 6 slices bacon chopped
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 ounces romaine lettuce thoroughly dried

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Food processor
  • Paper towels

Method
 

  1. Combine cayenne, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, chili seasoning, and cumin in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly. Pat chicken completely dry with paper towels and cut into uniform 1-inch cubes.
  2. Place chicken cubes in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and add spice mixture. Use hands to coat every piece evenly with seasoning.
  3. Arrange seasoned chicken in air fryer basket in single layer, ensuring pieces don't touch. Air fry at 400°F for 4 minutes, flip, then cook additional 4 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  4. While chicken cooks, prepare cilantro lime ranch by combining mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, cilantro, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce in food processor. Blend until smooth.
  5. Warm tortillas slightly for flexibility. Spread ranch down center of each tortilla, then layer with lettuce, bacon, cooked chicken, and cheese.
  6. Fold in tortilla sides, then roll from bottom to top, keeping filling tightly contained. For extra crispiness, return assembled wraps to air fryer for 2-3 minutes at 350°F.

Notes

Store cooked chicken separately for up to 3 days. Ranch improves in flavor after a day. Reheat chicken in air fryer 2-3 minutes to restore crispiness. Don't overcrowd air fryer basket - work in batches if needed.
