Instructions
Creating Easy Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito is simple when you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Preheat Grill: Begin by preheating your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
2. Prepare Marinade: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate Chicken: Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes for enhanced flavor.
4. Grill Chicken: Place the marinated chicken on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
5. Rest the Chicken: Once grilled, transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes.
6. Slice Chicken: After resting, slice the chicken into strips or bite-sized pieces.
7. Warm Tortillas: Lightly warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or microwave them for a few seconds to make them pliable.
8. Assemble Burritos: Lay a warm tortilla flat on a plate. Place a portion of grilled chicken in the center.
9. Add Filling: Top the chicken with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a generous drizzle of chipotle ranch dressing.
10. Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Ensure all ingredients are secured inside.
11. Serve: Optionally, you can grill the wrapped burrito for a minute on each side to add slight crispiness.
These steps will lead you to assemble an incredible burrito that’s both visually appealing and delicious!
