Chicken Bell Pepper Ranch Burritos

 Chicken Bell Pepper Ranch Burritos

Juicy ranch-seasoned chicken, sweet bell peppers, and gooey melted cheese come together in these crispy grilled burritos. They’re quick to make, packed with flavor, and perfect for lunch, dinner, or meal prep.

 Ingredients

For the Filling

• 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)
• 3 bell peppers (any colors), thinly sliced
• 1 small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

For the Burritos

• 6 large flour tortillas
• 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil, for grilling

 Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion, and sauté for 5–7 minutes until tender-crisp.
2. Stir in the shredded chicken and ranch seasoning. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring to coat everything evenly.
3. Reduce the heat to low. Add the softened cream cheese and stir until completely melted and combined.
4. Mix in the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses until melted. Remove from the heat and stir in parsley, if using.
5. Warm the tortillas for a few seconds to make them easier to roll.
6. Spoon the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into burritos.
7. Lightly butter or oil a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the burritos seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
8. Slice in half and serve hot with ranch dressing, salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.

 Tips

• Add sliced jalapeños for extra heat.
• Black beans or corn make great additions to the filling.
• Freeze assembled burritos before grilling for an easy make-ahead meal.
