Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken breast boneless and skinless
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 4 large flour tortillas burrito size
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 0.5 cup shredded cheese cheddar or blend
  • 0.5 cup chipotle ranch dressing
  • 1 medium avocado diced, optional

Equipment

  • Grill or grill pan
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Meat thermometer

Method
 

  1. Coat chicken breasts with olive oil and taco seasoning, ensuring even coverage. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prep other ingredients.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  3. Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F with golden-brown grill marks.
  4. Let chicken rest for 3-5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
  5. Warm tortillas in microwave for 20 seconds or on dry skillet until pliable.
  6. Layer each tortilla with sliced chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and chipotle ranch dressing. Use about ¾ cup total filling per tortilla.
  7. Add optional diced avocado if desired.
  8. Roll tightly by folding in sides first, then rolling from bottom to top. Slice in half diagonally to serve.

Notes

For time-saving, use rotisserie chicken - just shred and toss with seasoning. Store leftover chipotle ranch in airtight container for up to a week. Always check internal temperature reaches 165°F for food safety.
