Chicken Ranch Wraps
A crisp tortilla makes a simple chicken wrap feel particularly good. Inside, the ranch and melted mozzarella keep things creamy, with cilantro if you like that fresh little lift. Slice one in half while it's warm and you get a very inviting contrast between the filling and those golden edges.

Divide the filling between tortillas and fold each one into a tight burrito shape.

A few questions you might have
Can I use rotisserie chicken?
Yes, cooked rotisserie chicken is one of the options.
Is the cilantro required?
No, it's listed as optional and can be left out of the filling.
Does raw chicken cook inside the wrap?
Start with cooked chicken. The short pan cook is for the filled tortillas.
When do I add the ranch?
Put it inside each tortilla with the chicken, cheese and optional cilantro before folding.
How should the outside look?
The tortilla should be crispy and golden on both sides before you slice and serve it.
Any more cooking tips?
For the chicken: You can use cooked rotisserie chicken, leftover chicken, or grilled chicken seasoned with your favorite spices. I like to season my chicken with a tablespoon of fajita seasoning and grill in a hot pan for 5-6 minutes per side or until cooked through.
Storage & reheating safety
For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
