Chicken Wraps

 

If you are watching what you are eating this recipe may not be for you, unless you want to cut yourself a break for one night. These wraps have homemade onion straws and a creamy BBQ ranch sauce. If you look on the bright side they are made with a spinach tortilla and have fresh spinach inside… ;)
Chicken Wraps recipe feeds 6-8 depending on how you stuff your wrap. Leftovers the next day are just as good cold.

Ingredients
6 Boneless skinless chicken breast (season with salt and pepper, with a light hand)
1 package of Mission Wraps: Garden Spinach Herb (6ct.)
1/2 cup Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce (set 1/4 cup aside)
1/2 cup Hidden Valley ranch (made from packet)
3 whole pickles (quarter the pickles and cut into pieces) Claussen, Kosher Dill brand in refrigerator section
2 tomatoes (sliced thin)
2 cups of cheddar cheese (shredded)
spinach (about 4 cups, fresh and washed)
1 large onion (sliced thin with a mandolin)
2 cup of buttermilk
3 cups flour
Oil (for frying)
 I know that pickles may sound odd to some with all the combination going on here, but trust me it works! If your not a pickle fan, toss them right out of this recipe!
  I love pickles. I will admit, I am a pickle snob, they have to be a certain kind or forget about it!  
Step 1: Shred cheese, set aside. Slice tomatoes, set aside. Wash, pat dry spinach, set aside. Chop pickles, set aside. Make ranch from package as directed. Once ranch is made per packaged directions, mix 1/2 cup of ranch with 1/4 cup BBQ sauce. stir together, set aside in refrigerator. TIP: ( There is a different taste with bottled Hidden Valley ranch, you will not get the same taste or consistantsy as you would with the packaged.)  I like to get these things ready first and make an assembly line to make it easier while I am stuffing the wraps.
Onion Straws Recipe Below

Start heating your oil. I have a professional deep fryer, however you can do this on top of your stove. You will want your thermometer to reach 375* Slice onion very thin. To achieve these results you will need a mandolin, unless you can do it with a knife. I however need my mandolin.  Once onion is sliced, place entire sliced onion in the buttermilk. Coat sliced onion with flour, trying to shake off as much flour as possible. I like to have a tray lined with paper towels to set my onion straws on once they are fried.  You are now ready to deep fry. Fry until lightly brown. Drain and set aside. ( If you don’t want to mess with frying, you can always buy French Fried onions in the can. I occasionally switch out the fried onions for tortilla strips, found in the salad dressing isle)

Step 3: Season and grill boneless skinless chicken breast, baste with BBQ sauce. Once chicken is cooked, cut into small chunks. Set aside.
Step 4: Warm tortillas and start to assemble your wrap. Starting at the top of the tortilla, working your way to the other end, you will do this with with all the ingredients. place 1 to 2 tablespoons of creamy BBQ ranch sauce in tortilla, lay about 3 slices of tomato on top of BBQ ranch sauce. Sprinkle cheese on top of tomato, followed by spinach, next place chicken chunks and then onion straws and pickles. Wrap up cut in 1/2 and serve.
 I like to serve this with fruit. Although, last night I was bad and made homemade fries. No they were not baked ):  Yep, and I dipped them in ranch! LOL. I figured my night was already blown when I made the creamy BBQ ranch sauce and the fried onion straws. Oh well, today I will be good, I promise!  (:
