Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup ranch dressing

2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup diced tomatoes

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Squeeze of lime juice

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine ranch dressing, chopped chipotle peppers, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts, coating them well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).

    Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

      Prepare the Burritos: Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start layering by adding a scoop of cooked rice, followed by black beans, corn, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and grilled chicken strips. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

        Fold the Burrito: To roll the burrito, fold in the sides over the filling, then roll from the bottom to the top tightly, ensuring everything stays inside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

          Warm the Burritos: Optional step for a crispy finish – place the rolled burritos seam-side down in a clean skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and heated through.

            Serve: Enjoy your delicious Easy Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito warm, drizzled with extra ranch dressing or a squeeze of lime juice on top.
