Description

Experience a flavor-packed journey with Chicken Bell Pepper Ranch Burritos, featuring tender chicken, vibrant bell peppers, and creamy ranch dressing all wrapped in soft tortillas. Perfect for any meal!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups bell peppers (mix of red and green), chopped
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, cumin, and paprika. Place them in a baking dish coated with nonstick spray.
  2. Bake chicken for about 25-30 minutes or until no longer pink inside. Let cool slightly before shredding.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté chopped bell peppers until tender but still crunchy (about five minutes).
  4. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken with sautéed bell peppers and ranch dressing. Mix until well combined.
  5. Lay out each tortilla on a clean surface. Spoon the chicken and pepper mixture into the center of each tortilla. Top with grated cheese before rolling tightly.
  6. For crispy burritos, place them seam-side down in a baking dish and bake for an additional ten minutes at 375°F (190°C) until golden brown.
  7. Drizzle with sour cream before serving.
