Ingredients
- 8 medium frozen chicken tenders cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup black beans drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup corn
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup romaine lettuce chopped
- 1 large tomato diced
Southwest Dressing

Instructions
- Cook the chicken tenders according to package instructions (or reheat 1½ pounds of rotisserie or leftover chicken) and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a hot skillet then place on a flat work surface. In the center of each tortilla add the cooked chicken tenders, about 2 tablespoons of black beans, 2 tablespoons of corn, 2 tablespoons of cheese, 1/4 cup lettuce, and 2 tablespoons tomatoes.
- In a small bowl, mix the ranch dressing and salsa, then drizzle the dressing over the ingredients in the tortilla.
- Fold in the sides and then roll the tortilla like a burrito. Serve warm or room temperature. Enjoy!
Notes
Storing leftovers: leftover wraps can be stored in the fridge overnight.
Make-ahead tips: ingredients can be prepped and stored separately in airtight containers or wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 3 days.
Instead of frozen chicken tenders, you can substitute 1½ pounds homemade chicken tenders, rotisserie chicken, or other leftover chicken.
