Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burritos

🌯🔥 Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burritos – Smoky, Creamy, and Tex-Mex Dreamy! 🌶️🧀
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp chipotle chili powder (or 1–2 chipotle peppers in adobo, finely chopped)

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

½ cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or Mexican blend cheese)

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup cooked rice (optional)

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained (optional)

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions:
Marinate and grill the chicken:
In a bowl, mix olive oil, chipotle chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts thoroughly.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill chicken for 6–8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and nicely charred. Let rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly.

Warm the tortillas:
Heat the tortillas on a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

Assemble the burritos:
Spread about 2 tablespoons of ranch dressing onto each tortilla. Layer with sliced chipotle chicken, shredded cheese, rice, and black beans if using.

Roll it up:
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from one end to the other.

Optional – crisp the burritos:
For an extra touch, heat a skillet over medium heat and place the burritos seam-side down. Cook for 1–2 minutes each side until golden and crispy.

Serve:
Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges. Enjoy your smoky, creamy, and flavorful burritos!

Tips:
Adjust chipotle level for spiciness.

Add guacamole, sour cream, or salsa for extra layers of flavor.

Use leftover grilled chicken or rotisserie chicken to save time.
