Ingredients
Scale
Protein & Meat
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into very thin strips
- 1/3 cup chopped bacon
Vegetables & Garnishes
- butter or iceberg lettuce leaves (enough for wraps)
- 1 avocado, sliced
Dairy & Dressings
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup ranch salad dressing (or more to taste)
Spices & Seasonings
- 1-2 teaspoons seasoning salt (or any seasoning blend preferred)
Other
- 1/2 cup crispy fried onions (adjust to taste)
- 8 to 10 8-inch flour tortillas, warmed
Instructions
- Cook bacon and chicken: In a large non-stick skillet over medium to medium-high heat, cook the sliced chicken with chopped bacon and seasoning salt, ensuring the chicken strips are not crowded to promote even cooking. Sauté until the chicken turns golden brown and the juices run clear, indicating the chicken is fully cooked.
- Add crispy onions and cheese: Reduce the heat to low and add the crispy fried onions and shredded cheddar cheese directly to the skillet. Stir gently and cook until the cheese melts and blends with the other ingredients to create a creamy, flavorful mixture.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay several butter or iceberg lettuce leaves on each warmed flour tortilla. Spoon a generous portion of the chicken, bacon, cheese, and onion mixture on top. Add sliced avocado and drizzle with ranch salad dressing. Roll up the tortillas tightly to form wraps and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Note 1: Slicing chicken breasts into very thin strips helps them cook quickly and evenly.
- Note 2: Seasoning salt or your favorite seasoning blend can be adjusted to personal taste for optimal flavor.
- Note 3: Adjust the amount of crispy fried onions to taste, adding more for extra crunch.
- Note 4: Avoid overcrowding the skillet when cooking chicken to ensure proper browning and prevent steaming.
