Ingredients

– 2 large chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 cup chipotle ranch dressing
– 4 large flour tortillas
– 1 cup shredded lettuce
– 1 cup diced tomatoes
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– ½ cup sliced black olives (optional)
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating your Easy Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with olive oil, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
3. Let It Rest: Remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for a few minutes. This helps retain the juices for a moist bite.
4. Slice the Chicken: After resting, slice the chicken into thin strips.
5. Prepare the Tortillas: Lightly warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a microwave to make them more pliable.
6. Build the Burrito: Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread a generous amount of chipotle ranch dressing in the center, followed by sliced grilled chicken, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheddar cheese, and olives (if using).
7. Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top, ensuring all the fillings stay inside.
8. Toast the Burrito: For extra texture, place the wrapped burrito back on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
9. Serve: Slice the burrito in half and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

This straightforward method guides you through making each component of the burrito, ensuring incredible flavors that will have everyone asking for seconds!
