Ingredients
Scale
Wrap Ingredients
- 1 cooked chicken breast, sliced or shredded
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 2 flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2–3 tablespoons ranch dressing (or your favorite dressing)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Slice or shred the cooked chicken breast. Slice the avocado carefully to remove the pit, then slice the flesh. Dice the tomatoes finely and shred lettuce if needed to ensure all ingredients are ready for assembly.
- Warm Tortillas: Place the flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and warm them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable and easier to wrap.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay each warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute a layer of shredded lettuce onto each tortilla, leaving some space at the edges. Next, add the sliced or shredded chicken over the lettuce, followed by the avocado slices. Sprinkle diced tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese on top.
- Season and Dress: Season the fillings with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the ranch dressing or your chosen dressing evenly over the ingredients to add moisture and flavor.
- Wrap Up: Fold both sides of the tortilla over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom up to form a secure wrap, making sure the filling stays inside.
- Serve: Place the wrap seam-side down on a plate to keep it closed. For easier eating and presentation, slice each wrap diagonally in half and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use cooked chicken breast that can be grilled, baked, or rotisserie for convenience and flavor.
- Adjust the amount of ranch dressing to your preference or substitute with a healthier yogurt-based dressing for a lighter option.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or corn tortillas.
- For added crunch, consider adding sliced cucumbers or bell peppers.
- Store any leftovers wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours for best freshness.
