Two cut halves of a wrap are shown with layers starting from a soft, light beige tortilla with light brown spots on the outside. Inside each wrap, the first layer is shredded fresh green lettuce with mixed light and dark green shades, followed by bright orange shredded cheddar cheese scattered across the lettuce. On top of the cheese are chunky pieces of golden brown crispy fried chicken with a crunchy texture. Small dollops of white creamy sauce are visible near the chicken and lettuce.

Ingredients

4 small flour tortillas (approximately 13 cm diameter)
4 frozen chicken tenders
180 grams shredded lettuce
60 grams shredded cheddar cheese
60 millilitres ranch dressing

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the frozen chicken tenders according to the package instructions until they are thoroughly cooked and golden crisp.
Step 2: Warm the flour tortillas by heating them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side, or microwave them for 10 to 15 seconds until soft and flexible.
Step 3: Cut the cooked chicken tenders into bite-sized pieces.
Step 4: Lay each tortilla flat and evenly spread shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, and sliced chicken along the center.
Step 5: Drizzle ranch dressing over the fillings in each tortilla.
Step 6: Fold both sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly into a compact wrap.
Step 7: Serve immediately, or wrap in foil for easy portability.

Tips & Variations

For extra crunch, add sliced cucumbers or bell peppers inside the wrap.
Swap ranch dressing for a spicy chipotle mayo to add a smoky kick.
Use whole wheat or spinach tortillas for a healthier twist.
Make it vegetarian by replacing chicken tenders with crispy tofu strips.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in foil in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, unwrap and warm the wrap in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and crispy. Avoid reheating in the microwave to maintain the tortilla’s crispness.

FAQs

Can I use fresh chicken instead of frozen tenders?

Yes, you can cook fresh chicken tenders seasoned to your liking. Bake or pan-fry them until fully cooked and crispy before assembling the wraps.

How can I keep the wrap from getting soggy?

To prevent sogginess, place the dressing last and avoid adding it too early. You can also pack the dressing separately and add it just before eating.

Wrap Ingredients

4 small flour tortillas (approximately 13 cm diameter)

Filling Ingredients

4 frozen chicken tenders
180 grams shredded lettuce
60 grams shredded cheddar cheese
60 millilitres ranch dressing

Instructions

Cook Chicken Tenders: Prepare the frozen chicken tenders according to the instructions on their packaging. Cook them until they are thoroughly cooked through and reach a crispy golden brown exterior for maximum flavor and texture.
Warm Tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or alternatively microwave them for 10 to 15 seconds. This step softens the tortillas, making them pliable and perfect for wrapping.
Slice Chicken: Once the chicken tenders have cooled slightly, cut them into bite-sized pieces to ensure every bite is flavorful and makes the wrap easy to eat.
Assemble Wraps: Lay each warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced chicken tender pieces along the center of each tortilla.
Add Ranch Dressing: Drizzle ranch dressing generously over the fillings in the center of the tortilla to add creaminess and flavor.
Wrap and Serve: Fold both sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly from one end to the other into a compact wrap that holds all the ingredients securely.
Final Touch: Serve the wraps immediately while the chicken is still warm and crispy, or wrap them in foil for an easy, portable snack to enjoy later.

Notes

For a healthier option, consider using whole wheat tortillas or a low-fat ranch dressing.
Can easily be customized by adding sliced tomatoes or avocado for extra freshness.
To keep the wrap crispy, add the ranch dressing just before eating to prevent the tortilla from becoming soggy.
This recipe works well with homemade or pre-cooked chicken tenders if preferred.
