Ingredients
  

Chicken Prep
  • 1 pound chicken breast Look for organic or free-range chicken for best flavor and tenderness.
  • 2 cloves garlic Fresh is best; add more if you’re a garlic lover.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil A good quality extra virgin olive oil elevates the flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Adjust it to taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper Freshly cracked gives the best taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika Adds color and subtle smoky flavor.
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper For heat; omit for milder dish.
Wrap Assembly
  • 4 large flour tortillas Flour or whole wheat, ensure they’re large enough.
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce Iceberg or romaine for crunch.
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes.
  • 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese Mild or sharp, based on your taste.
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing Can be store-bought or homemade.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Mince the garlic cloves.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
  4. Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet and brush them with the garlic mixture.
  5. Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Assembly
  1. Remove the chicken from the oven and shred it using two forks.
  2. Warm up the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave.
  3. Lay out the tortillas and divide the shredded chicken evenly among them.
  4. Top each tortilla with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing.
  5. Wrap the tortillas tightly and serve immediately.

Notes

Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. You can prepare chicken ahead of time for quick assembly later.
