Ingredients
boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 (cut into strips)

2 cups (none)
Uncle Ben's Fast Cooking Long Grain and Wild Rice Blend
1 (8 7/8 ounce) box (none)
ranch salad dressing
1/2 cup (none)
shredded lettuce
1 cup (none)

Instructions
1
Begin by spraying a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray over medium-high heat.
2
Add the chicken strips and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned on both sides.
3
Pour in the water, the rice from the box, and the seasoning packet. Bring the mixture to a boil.
4
Once boiling, cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked (no longer pink in the center) and the water is absorbed.
5
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the ranch dressing until well combined.
6
To assemble the wraps, lay a warmed tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon an even amount of the chicken and rice mixture down the center of each tortilla, then top with a handful of shredded lettuce.
7
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and tightly roll it up from the bottom to secure the filling.
8
Repeat the process for each tortilla, and when ready, slice each wrap diagonally in half for easy serving.
