Chicken Bell Pepper Ranch Burritos (Print Version)

Savory chicken, bell peppers, and ranch dressing wrapped in toasted tortillas with cheddar.

# Ingredients:

→ Filling

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 1 red bell pepper, sliced
04 - 1 green bell pepper, sliced
05 - 1 small onion, sliced
06 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
07 - 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
08 - Salt, to taste
09 - Black pepper, to taste
10 - 1/2 cup ranch dressing
11 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

→ Wraps & Optional Toppings

12 - 4 large flour tortillas (25 cm)
13 - Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
14 - Diced tomatoes (optional)
15 - Sliced jalapeños (optional)
16 - Sliced avocado (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red and green bell peppers along with the onion. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly charred. Season with garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
02 - Add the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir thoroughly and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the chicken is heated throughout.
03 - Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in ranch dressing and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly coated and cheese begins to melt.
04 - Warm the flour tortillas gently to enhance flexibility. Evenly distribute the chicken and pepper mixture among the tortillas, and top with any desired optional garnishes.
05 - Wrap each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to seal. For a crispy exterior, place burritos seam-side down in a hot skillet, cooking 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown.
06 - Serve the burritos warm, accompanied by extra ranch dressing or salsa if preferred.

# Notes:

01 - Ensure the tortillas are sufficiently warmed before assembling to prevent cracking during rolling.
02 - For a lighter option, use low-fat ranch dressing and reduced-fat cheese.
