Description

This Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito is packed with bold flavor, juicy grilled chicken, chipotle ranch, black beans, and melty cheese—all wrapped in a warm, crispy tortilla. It’s perfect for weeknight dinners, meal prep, or a high-protein lunch that satisfies every craving.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked grilled chicken breast, chopped or shredded (about 300g)

  • 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized)

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (60g)

  • ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (60g)

  • 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)

  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

  • ½ cup corn kernels (optional, canned or fresh)

  • ½ cup chopped romaine lettuce

  • ¼ cup diced red onion

  • 1 small tomato, diced

  • ½ cup chipotle ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or cooking spray (for grilling)

Optional Add-ins:

  • Sliced avocado or guacamole

  • Jalapeños for heat

  • Fresh cilantro

  • Lime wedges for serving


Instructions

  • In a large bowl, toss the grilled chicken with the chipotle ranch dressing until evenly coated.

  • Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  • Assemble each burrito: layer with rice, beans, corn, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheeses, and chipotle ranch chicken.

  • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll up tightly from the bottom.

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil or spray. Place the burritos seam-side down and grill 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

 

  • Slice in half and serve warm with extra chipotle ranch or your favorite salsa.


Notes

  • Great for meal prep: wrap and refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze up to 2 months.

  • Reheat in a skillet, oven, or air fryer for best results.

  • Adjust spice level by adding more or less chipotle or jalapeños.

 

  • For a vegetarian version, swap chicken for grilled tofu, mushrooms, or extra beans.
