Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into very thin strips
- 1/3 cup chopped bacon
- 1-2 teaspoons seasoning salt or any seasoning blend you prefer
- 1/2 cup crispy fried onions (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (adjust to taste)
- Butter or iceberg lettuce leaves
- 8 to 10 8-inch flour tortillas, warmed
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup ranch salad dressing (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Cook bacon and chicken: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the chopped bacon and cook until it starts to crisp. Add the thinly sliced chicken strips to the skillet, ensuring the chicken is not crowded, and season with 1-2 teaspoons of seasoning salt or your preferred blend. Cook the chicken and bacon together until the chicken is golden brown and the juices run clear, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally for even cooking.
- Finish with cheese and onions: Lower the heat to low and add the crispy fried onions and shredded cheddar cheese to the skillet with the chicken and bacon. Stir gently and cook until the cheese melts completely and the onions are heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay several butter or iceberg lettuce leaves onto each warmed flour tortilla. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken, bacon, cheese, and onion mixture onto the lettuce. Add sliced avocado on top and drizzle with ranch salad dressing to taste. Carefully roll up the tortillas, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a wrap.
Notes
- Slice the chicken very thinly to ensure quick and even cooking.
- You can use your favorite seasoning salt or any seasoning blend that complements chicken and bacon.
- Adjust the amount of crispy fried onions and cheddar cheese based on your preference for crunch and cheesiness.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet when cooking the chicken to allow for even browning and proper cooking.
- Warming the tortillas before assembling helps make them more pliable and easier to roll.
