Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cheese Sauce: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until bubbly. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to form a roux.
  2. Make it Creamy: Gradually whisk in 1 cup of milk and ½ cup of heavy cream, stirring continuously until thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add Flavor to the Sauce: Stir in 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese, ½ cup of ranch dressing, and ½ cup of cooked bacon pieces. Mix until the cheese has completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Combine with Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the creamy cheese mixture with 2 cups of shredded cooked chicken until well-coated.
  5. Fill the Tortillas: Spoon a portion of the chicken and cheese mixture onto a large flour wrap, fold the sides, and roll tightly to create a secure wrap.
  6. Toast the Wraps: Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until golden. Flip and toast the opposite side.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Slice each wrap in half and serve with extra ranch dressing on the side.

Notes

Allow the cheese filling to cool slightly to prevent sogginess in wraps. Toast the seam side last until golden for extra crunch. Reheat in a dry skillet for best results.
