- 1 tbsp oil
For the Quick Ranch Dressing (Optional)

- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp fresh dill
- 1 tbsp cilantro
- 1 tbsp parsley
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
Additions for Assembly
- 4-6 large tortillas – flour or any preferred type
- Romaine or green leaf lettuce – leaves rinsed and dried
- 1 vine-ripe tomato – sliced
- ¼ cup cheddar cheese – shredded
- ½ cup parmesan cheese – shredded
- Avocado slices optional

Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
- Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally. Place them inside a resealable plastic bag and tenderize them lightly using a mallet or rolling pin.
- In a small bowl, mix paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken pieces evenly with this spice mixture. Allow the seasoned chicken to rest while preparing other components.
Prepare the Ranch Dressing
- In a food processor or blender, combine sour cream (or Greek yogurt), apple cider vinegar, garlic, dill, cilantro, parsley, salt, and pepper. Blend until the mixture is smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding a tablespoon of water if necessary. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Set aside.
Grill the Chicken
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the seasoned chicken on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Assemble the Wraps
- Warm the tortillas in a skillet over low heat for a pliable texture.
- Layer the center of each tortilla with lettuce, tomato slices, grilled chicken strips, shredded cheddar and parmesan cheese, and optional ingredients like avocado and bacon. Drizzle with the prepared ranch dressing.
- Wrap the tortilla tightly by folding the bottom edge up and tucking in the sides. For a crispy exterior, place the assembled wraps on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
Serve and Enjoy
- Slice the wraps diagonally for a neat presentation. Serve immediately.
