Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup of shredded lettuce
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1/4 cup of ranch dressing
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Season each chicken breast with the spice mixture, then wrap 2 slices of bacon around each chicken breast, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
- Place the wrapped chicken breasts on the wire rack and bake for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
- Remove the toothpicks from the chicken and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each breast. Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- To assemble the wraps, place a tortilla on a clean surface and top with shredded lettuce and sliced tomato. Place a cheesy bacon-wrapped chicken breast on top and drizzle with ranch dressing.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly, tucking in the ends as you go.
- Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy!
