Ingredients

Scale

Chicken 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
  • ½ cup ranch dressing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the olive oil, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade and coat each chicken breast thoroughly with the mixture.
  2. Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for approximately 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are fully cooked and juicy.
  3. Rest and Slice: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This step helps retain the juices. Then slice the chicken into thin, easy-to-wrap strips.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay out each flour tortilla flat. Layer evenly with chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced bell peppers, shredded cheddar cheese, and the grilled chicken strips.
  5. Add Dressing and Wrap: Drizzle ranch dressing over the fillings for a creamy touch. Wrap the tortillas tightly from one end to the other to secure the ingredients inside.
  6. Serve: Serve the wraps immediately or keep them refrigerated for your next gathering for a delicious, ready-to-eat meal.

Notes

  • Ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F for safety.
  • For extra smoky flavor, use a charcoal grill if available.
  • You can substitute ranch dressing with a spicy mayo or your favorite dressing for a flavor twist.
  • Use whole wheat tortillas to increase fiber content and nutritional value.
  • Wraps can be prepared in advance; just keep the dressing separate until serving to avoid sogginess.
