Instructions
Creating Healthy Grilled Chicken Ranch Wraps is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season them with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
2. Heat the Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and add olive oil.
3. Grill the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Ensure that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
4. Rest Chicken: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for approximately 5 minutes. This will help retain the juices.
5. Slice Chicken: After resting, slice the grilled chicken into thin strips.
6. Prepare Tortillas: If desired, warm your tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side for added flexibility.
7. Assemble Wraps: On each tortilla, layer fresh spinach, sliced grilled chicken, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and shredded cheese if using.
8. Drizzle Ranch Dressing: Add ranch dressing over the fillings according to personal preference.
9. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly from the bottom to secure the filling.
10. Serve Immediately: Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately, or wrap them in foil for a grab-and-go meal.
