Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 2 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 1 cup ranch dressing
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar and Monterey Jack blend)

Instructions

  1. 1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix chipotle peppers and ranch dressing until smooth. Place chicken in a resealable bag, pour half the marinade over it, seal, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  2. 2. Grill the Chicken: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  3. 3. Assemble the Burrito: Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lay tortillas flat, layer on lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and sliced chicken.
  4. 4. Wrap and Serve: Drizzle with remaining ranch dressing, wrap tightly, and serve immediately with extra dressing for dipping.
