Advertisement

1. Prepare the BBQ Chicken:

  • Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  • Brush the chicken with olive oil and place on the grill.
  • Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  • Brush the chicken with BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of grilling.
  • Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

2. Prepare the Salad:

  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, corn kernels, black beans, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro.

3. Make the Dressing:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the ranch dressing and BBQ sauce until well combined.

4. Assemble the Wraps:

  • Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  • Place a generous amount of the salad mixture in the center of the tortilla.
  • Add a few slices of the BBQ chicken on top of the salad.
  • Drizzle with the BBQ ranch dressing.
  • Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a wrap.
  • Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

5. Serve:

  • Serve the wraps immediately, or if you’re making them ahead, wrap each one in aluminum foil or parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to eat.

Tips and Variations

  • Spicy Twist: Add some sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the salad for an extra kick.
  • Vegetarian Option: Substitute the chicken with grilled tofu or tempeh, and use a vegetarian BBQ sauce.
  • Extra Crunch: Add some crushed tortilla chips or sliced avocado for additional texture and flavor.
  • Meal Prep: These wraps can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just be sure to keep the dressing separate until you’re ready to eat to prevent the wraps from getting soggy.

Enjoy your BBQ Chicken Salad Wraps as a delicious and satisfying meal that brings together the best of barbecue and fresh, healthy ingredients!
