Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup chipotle ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil


Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat ensuring it’s hot and ready for cooking the chicken.
  2. Season the chicken: Rub the chicken breasts evenly with salt, pepper, and olive oil to enhance flavor and prevent sticking.
  3. Grill the chicken: Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and they are fully cooked.
  4. Rest and slice chicken: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes to retain juices before slicing into strips.
  5. Toss chicken with dressing: In a bowl, mix the sliced chicken with the chipotle ranch dressing until all pieces are evenly coated.
  6. Warm tortillas: Place each flour tortilla on the grill and heat for about 30 seconds per side until warm and pliable.
  7. Assemble burritos: On each warm tortilla, layer the chipotle ranch chicken mixture, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, black beans, and corn.
  8. Add lime juice and wrap: Drizzle fresh lime juice over the fillings, then fold in the sides and roll the tortilla tightly to form a burrito.
  9. Serve immediately: Enjoy these delicious chipotle ranch grilled chicken burritos while warm for the best taste experience.

Notes

  • Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor.
  • Black beans can be substituted with pinto beans if preferred.
  • Adjust the amount of chipotle ranch dressing to make it more or less spicy.
  • Allowing chicken to rest after grilling helps keep the meat juicy.
  • Warm tortillas make wrapping easier and prevent cracking.
