Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Bacon
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into very thin strips
- 1/3 cup chopped bacon
- 1-2 teaspoons seasoning salt or any seasoning blend you like
Toppings and Wrap
- 1/2 cup crispy fried onions (more or less to taste)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (more or less to taste)
- Butter or iceberg lettuce leaves
- 8 to 10 8-inch flour tortillas, warmed
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup ranch salad dressing (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Cook bacon and chicken: In a large non-stick skillet over medium to medium-high heat, cook the chopped bacon until it starts to crisp. Add the very thinly sliced chicken strips, making sure not to crowd the pan for even cooking. Season with seasoning salt or your preferred seasoning blend. Cook until the chicken is golden and the juices run clear.
- Add crispy onions and cheese: Lower the heat to low and stir in the crispy fried onions and shredded cheddar cheese. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the cheese has fully melted and incorporated into the mixture.
- Assemble the wraps and serve: Place several leaves of butter or iceberg lettuce on each warmed tortilla. Spoon the chicken, bacon, cheese, and onion mixture evenly over the lettuce. Top with sliced avocado and drizzle with ranch dressing. Roll up the tortillas tightly to form wraps and serve immediately.
Notes
- Note 1: Slicing chicken very thin ensures quick and even cooking.
- Note 2: Use your favorite seasoning blend or a simple seasoning salt to suit your taste preferences.
- Note 3: Adjust the amount of crispy fried onions to your liking for added crunch and flavor.
- Note 4: Using a large skillet prevents overcrowding and helps the chicken brown nicely instead of steaming.
