Description
A lighter, high-protein twist on a classic comfort food, featuring tender buffalo chicken, a creamy Greek yogurt ranch, and crisp vegetables wrapped in a warm tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup buffalo sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2% recommended)
- 2–3 tablespoons buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 large (10-inch) tortillas (whole wheat or spinach)
- 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- 1 medium carrot, shredded
- 2 stalks celery, sliced thin
- ¼ cup blue cheese crumbles (optional)
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
Instructions
- Wash and chop the romaine lettuce, carrots, and celery. Store in the fridge until ready to assemble.
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little olive oil.
- Cook chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Let chicken rest for 5 minutes, then shred or chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, mix shredded chicken with buffalo sauce and melted butter until coated. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, buttermilk, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Warm tortillas in a skillet over low heat for 15-20 seconds per side to make them pliable.
- Spread a generous layer of Greek yogurt ranch down the center of each tortilla.
- Top with buffalo chicken, shredded lettuce, carrots, celery, and blue cheese crumbles.
- Drizzle with extra ranch if desired, fold in the sides, and roll tightly from the bottom.
- Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
For a thicker ranch, strain the Greek yogurt in a cheesecloth for 15 minutes. Toast dried spices in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the yogurt for enhanced flavor. Keep chicken and veggies separate until assembly to maintain crispness. Warm tortillas prevent tearing.
