Looking for something bold, hearty, and totally satisfying? 🌯 This smoky chipotle ranch chicken wrap is loaded with juicy grilled chicken, fresh veggies, and zesty dressing — all rolled up in a warm tortilla.

Ingredients

For the Chicken Marinade:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp chipotle chili powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste

For the Burritos:

4 large flour tortillas
1 cup cooked white or brown rice
1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup shredded lettuce
½ cup diced tomatoes
½ cup corn kernels (optional)
¼ cup chopped cilantro (optional)
½ cup chipotle ranch dressing

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
In a medium bowl, whisk olive oil, lime juice, chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours for max flavor).

Step 2: Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high.
Grill chicken for 6–8 minutes per side, or until internal temp hits 165°F (74°C).
Let rest 5 minutes, then slice into strips. 🔥

Step 3: Prep the Fillings
Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft.
Heat rice and beans if needed.

Step 4: Assemble the Wraps
Spread 1–2 tbsp chipotle ranch in the center of each tortilla.
Layer rice, black beans, grilled chicken, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and corn (if using).
Top with chopped cilantro for a fresh bite. 🌿

Step 5: Wrap and Serve
Fold in the sides, then roll from the bottom to seal the burrito.
Serve as-is or give it a light sear in the pan for a crispy finish! 😋
