Ingredients
  

Tortillas
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
Grilled chicken
  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.25 salt and pepper to taste
Wrap fillings
  • 2 cup shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 bacon, cooked crispy
  • 0.5 cup ranch dressing

Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet

Method
 

Season and grill the chicken
  1. Rub chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Grill over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side until golden with grill marks and internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove to a plate.
  3. Rest the grilled chicken for 5 minutes, then slice thin for easy layering.
Assemble and toast the wraps
  1. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable, so they fold without cracking.
  2. Spread 2 tablespoons ranch dressing across each tortilla, then layer romaine, cherry tomatoes, shredded cheddar, 2 bacon strips, and sliced chicken.
  3. Roll tightly into wraps, keeping the filling compressed so the seam stays closed.
  4. Toast seam-side down in a skillet for 2 minutes per side until golden and sealed, using a visual cue of deep browning along the seam.
  5. Slice diagonally and serve with extra ranch for dipping, letting the creamy ranch pool at the cut edges.

Notes

For best wrap texture, slice the chicken thin after the 5-minute rest so it rolls up easily and heats evenly in the final skillet toast. Store assembled wraps in the fridge up to 2 days, but keep extra ranch separate to avoid soggy tortillas. Freezing is not recommended for fully assembled wraps, but cooked grilled chicken freezes up to 3 months. For a lighter option, use reduced-fat ranch dressing and half the cheese to reduce calories without changing the build.
