Ingredients
Chicken Filling
- 2 cups cooked grilled chicken breasts, chopped and seasoned with your favorite spices
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup cilantro, minced (optional)
Wraps
- 4 flour tortillas, 8 inches each
- 1-2 teaspoons oil or cooking spray, for cooking
Instructions
- Assemble the wraps: Lay the 8-inch tortillas flat on a clean surface. Distribute approximately 1/2 cup of the chopped grilled chicken evenly onto each tortilla. Add one tablespoon of ranch dressing, two tablespoons of mozzarella cheese, and one tablespoon of minced cilantro on top of the chicken. Fold the sides over and roll tightly to form a burrito-shaped wrap.
- Cook the wraps: Preheat a heavy-duty pan or grill to medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place each wrap seam side down and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy and the cheese inside has melted. Remove from heat once crispy.
- Serve: Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately while warm and crunchy for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can season the grilled chicken with your favorite spices like paprika, garlic powder, cumin, or chili powder to enhance flavor.
- Use fresh tortillas for the crispiest results when heating.
- Cilantro is optional but adds a fresh, herbaceous note to the wraps.
- For a lower-fat option, use reduced-fat mozzarella cheese and a light ranch dressing or substitute with Greek yogurt mixed with ranch seasoning.
- These wraps can be made ahead and reheated in a pan or grill for a quick meal.
