Ingredients
  

2 large flour tortillas

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (grilled or rotisserie)

1/2 cup Hatch green chiles, roasted and diced

1/4 cup ranch dressing

1/2 cup mixed greens (spinach, arugula, or lettuce)

1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)

1/4 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1 avocado, sliced

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: If you have leftover chicken, shred it into bite-sized pieces. If you're starting with raw chicken, season it lightly with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-cook the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked through, approximately 6-8 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Allow it to cool slightly before shredding.

    Mix the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the diced Hatch green chiles and the ranch dressing. Stir gently until all ingredients are well mixed. Taste the mixture, and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if necessary.

      Assemble the Wraps: Place a tortilla flat on a clean, dry surface. In the center of the tortilla, spread out a handful of mixed greens, ensuring to leave at least a 2-inch border around the edges for easy rolling.

        Add the Filling: Spoon a generous portion of the chicken and chile mixture directly onto the bed of greens. Top it with a sprinkle of shredded cheese, followed by diced tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, and the slices of avocado for added creaminess.

          Wrap It Up: Begin by folding the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom up, making sure to enclose the filling completely. For easier handling, you can cut the wrap in half diagonally.

            Toast (Optional): For a crispy texture, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and toast each side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.

              Serve: Cut the wraps diagonally for an appealing presentation and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side, allowing diners to squeeze fresh lime juice over the wrap for a zesty flavor boost.

                  Presentation Tips: Arrange the wraps on a platter, garnished with extra sliced avocado and lime wedges. Consider adding a sprinkle of chopped cilantro for color. Enjoy your flavorful wraps!
