Ingredients
  

  • 8 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • 1/2 head iceberg lettuce, chopped (about 4 cups)
  • 1 1/4 cups diced tomatoes (about 3/4 of a beefsteak tomato)
  • 16 oz grilled chicken breast strips
  • 16 oz shredded cheddar cheese (or Mexican blend or Colby Jack)
  • 3 oz crunchy tortilla strips or crushed tortilla chips
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup Taco Bell Creamy Chipotle Sauce

Equipment

  • Skillet or griddle
  • Cutting Board
  • Chef’s Knife
  • Tongs

Method
 

  1. Grate the cheese, chop the lettuce, and dice the tomatoes. Arrange all ingredients for assembly.
  2. Place a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Add about 1/2 cup cheese, 1/2 cup grilled chicken, 1 tablespoon chipotle sauce, 1 tablespoon ranch dressing, 1/2 cup lettuce, 2 tablespoons diced tomatoes, and 1/3 cup tortilla strips.
  3. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly into a burrito shape, keeping the filling secure inside.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Grill the burritos on all sides until golden brown and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side.
  5. Cut in half and serve warm with extra ranch, chipotle sauce, or salsa on the side.

Notes

Make it your way: Swap grilled chicken for steak or shredded beef. Add black beans or rice for extra filling power.
Storage: Wrap leftovers tightly in foil and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer until warm and crisp.
Serving tip: Serve with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole for dipping!
