These chicken bacon ranch wraps are my favorite quick and easy lunch! Filled with deliciously-seasoned shredded chicken, bacon, mozzarella cheese, creamy ranch dressing, and crisp lettuce, these wraps are seriously satisfying and totally hit the spot.
When lunchtime rolls around, I know these homemade chicken and ranch wraps are going to be a hit! They’re an easy grab-and-go option, packed with protein, super flavorful, and refreshing. The best part, I know my kids will be happy to eat them!
What’s in Chicken Bacon Ranch Wraps?
- Shredded Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts work best for this recipe. Or feel free to use up any leftover chicken, shredded chicken, or rotisserie chicken you have on hand instead!
- Spices: Garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and paprika season the chicken.
- Mozzarella Cheese: Adds a delicious cheesy flavor.
- Bacon: Adds a salty flavor and crisp texture that tastes amazing with ranch. Be sure to use pre-cooked pieces.
- Ranch Dressing: This creamy, herby dressing creates the best flavor!
- Iceberg Lettuce: Adds some crunch and freshness to balance the other ingredients.
- Tortillas: I like to use flour tortillas, but any type of wrap works.
Variations to Try
I love how simple these wraps are, it’s easy to swap out the ingredients as I please. Modify this ranch chicken wrap recipe by leaving out the bacon, swapping the mozzarella cheese for cheddar, or using a different creamy dressing, like Caesar or creamy Italian.

How to Store and Reheat
Once assembled, these chicken bacon ranch wraps last for about 1 day in the refrigerator before they get soggy. For best results, store the shredded ranch chicken mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and assemble with fresh tortillas.
Notes and Tips
- Warming the tortillas helps prevent them from breaking as you fold and roll them. I find that 30 seconds in the microwave is enough to soften them and make them pliable.
- If I already have some shredded chicken in my fridge, I just toss it into a bowl with the bacon and ranch, roll it up in a tortilla, and get straight to eating!
