Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– ½ teaspoon cumin
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 cup chipotle ranch dressing
– 4 large tortillas
– 1 cup shredded lettuce
– 1 cup diced tomatoes
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
– Optional: sliced jalapeños for added heat


Instructions

Creating the Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prep the Chicken: Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken breasts. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

2. Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breasts to coat evenly.

3. Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).

4. Slice the Chicken: Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a cutting board. Allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

5. Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken is resting, warm the tortillas in a clean skillet or wrap them in aluminum foil and place them in a preheated oven for 5 minutes.

6. Assemble the Burritos: Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Start with a generous amount of shredded lettuce, followed by the sliced chicken, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a drizzle of chipotle ranch dressing.

7. Fold the Burrito: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom to create a tight burrito.

8. Repeat: Follow the same steps for the remaining tortillas and filling.

9. Optional Grilling: For a crispy finish, you can grill the assembled burritos on the grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, seam-side down.

10. Serve: Cut the burritos in half for easy eating and give a final drizzle of chipotle ranch dressing if desired.
