Instructions

  1. Heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon in a single layer; cook, turning occasionally and adjusting heat if browning too quickly, until crispy, 6-10 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Carefully discard all but a thin layer of bacon fat from pan (you’ll use it later).
  2. While bacon cooks, wash and dry produce. Trim and discard root end from lettuce; chop leaves into bite-size pieces. Halve tomato lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise into half-moons.
  3. Open package of chicken and drain off any excess liquid. Heat pan with reserved bacon fat over medium-high heat. (TIP: If there isn’t enough bacon fat, add a drizzle of oil.) Add chicken and season with Fry Seasoning, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; once cool enough to handle, cut chicken into ½-inch strips.
  4. Meanwhile, place lettuce and tomato in a large bowl. Add blue cheese and ranch dressing; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds. Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Place chicken, bacon and as much salad as you like (save some for serving) on bottom third of each tortilla. Fold up bottom side of each tortilla over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form wraps.
  6. Halve wraps on a diagonal. Divide wraps between plates. Serve with hot sauce and any remaining salad on the side.

Recipe Tips

If there isn’t enough bacon fat to cook the chicken, add a drizzle of oil.

Warm tortillas in the microwave wrapped in damp paper towels to make them pliable and prevent cracking.
