Ingredients:
- Cooked chicken breast, sliced or shredded
- Ripe avocado, sliced
- Flour tortillas
- Shredded lettuce
- Diced tomatoes
- Shredded cheddar cheese
- Ranch dressing or your favorite dressing
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare Ingredients: Begin by cooking and slicing or shredding the chicken breast. If you have leftover chicken, this is a great way to use it up! Slice the avocado and carefully remove the pit. Dice the tomatoes and shred the lettuce if needed.
- Warm Tortillas: To make the wraps more pliable and easier to roll, place the flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave them for about 10-15 seconds to warm them up. This step ensures that the tortillas won’t crack when you assemble the wraps.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay the warm tortillas flat on a clean surface. Start by adding a layer of shredded lettuce on each tortilla, leaving some space at the edges for easy rolling. Next, place the cooked chicken slices or shredded chicken on top of the lettuce. Arrange the avocado slices over the chicken, followed by a sprinkle of diced tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Season and Dress: Season the filling with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle ranch dressing (or your preferred dressing) over the filling ingredients. The dressing adds a creamy texture and enhances the flavors of the wrap.
- Wrap Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling. Starting from the bottom edge, tightly roll the tortilla into a wrap, enclosing the filling completely. This technique ensures that all the delicious ingredients stay tucked inside.
- Serve: Place the wraps seam-side down on a serving plate. For a more elegant presentation, slice each wrap in half diagonally before serving.

These Chicken Avocado Wraps are not only quick and easy to make but also incredibly versatile. Pair them with your favorite side dish, such as a fresh salad or crispy sweet potato fries, for a complete meal. Alternatively, enjoy them on their own for a light yet fulfilling meal option.
