Chicken Wraps: Recipe

Here is my first ever recipe post! I'm actually really excited to post it!! :)

Last night for dinner I made some quick and easy chicken wraps. Seriously the easiest thing ever.

What you'll need:
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt & Pepper
2 tbsp oil
Shredded Lettuce
Shredded Cheese
Diced Up Tomatoes
Ranch Dressing/Hot Sauce (or whatever sauce you prefer)
Tortillas

Super easy so far, right? And super friendly on your wallet, too!

What to do:
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
Take the chicken out of the package and pat both sides dry with paper towels.
Heat up 2 tbsp oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat and swirl the oil in the pan.
Salt and pepper the smooth sides of the chicken breasts.
Place the chicken breats seasoned side down in the skillet without disturbing it for 4 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking season the otherside with salt and pepper again.
Flip the chicken over and let cook for 1 minute without disturbing.
After the 1 minute transfer the skillet from the burner to the oven.
Let the chicken cook in the oven, uncovered for 10 minutes.
Take the chicken out of the oven (PAN WILL BE HOT; do NOT make the same mistake I did!)
Then transfer the chicken from the skillet to a cutting board to rest for another 10 minutes.
After the chicken has rested for 10 minutes, slice it up in thin strips.
Warm the tortillas up on a microwave safe plate, wrapped in a damp paper towel for 30 seconds.
Take the fixins (bowl of lettuce, bowl of tomatoes, bowl of shredded cheese, plate of tortillas, plate of cut up chicken, and your choice of sauce) to the table.
Sit down, fix your own wrap the way you want, and ENJOY!


So tasty, and so good; we used 3 large chicken breasts and had leftover chicken breasts that can be used for another recipe later!

And they're kid friendly; even my 2 year old devoured them!!
Granted, I think she was a bigger fan of the cheese, mostly- but she ate a whole wrap, and my 5 year old ate 2 wraps!! (and one of them even had tomatoes on it!)

Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did.
