The McDonald’s grilled chicken snack wraps used to be my go-to favorite, but since they’ve taken them off the menu, why not recreate them at home, and even better? Picture this: perfectly seasoned grilled chicken wrapped in a soft tortilla with homemade buttermilk ranch, lettuce, and cheese.
McDonald’s Grilled Chicken Snack Wrap
For the grilled chicken:
- 1 pound chicken breast (halved)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
For the buttermilk ranch:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Other ingredients:
- Flour tortillas
- Shredded Colby jack cheese
- Shredded lettuce
- For the buttermilk ranch, mix mayo, buttermilk, yellow mustard, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set it aside.
- Now, onto the chicken. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, oregano, black pepper, and cumin.
- Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to get thinner pieces.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure it’s evenly coated.
- Heat a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat. If it tends to stick, spray it with a bit of oil.
- Add the chicken to the pan and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes on each side until the center reaches 165°F.
- Once cooked, chop the chicken into small pieces and set them aside.
- Now, it’s assembly time! Grab a flour tortilla and layer shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and the cooked chicken. Drizzle some of that homemade ranch on top, and you’re ready to enjoy your delicious homemade snack wrap!
