# What You'll Need:
→ Proteins
01 - 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 8 oz), diced
02 - 7 oz ground beef (85% lean)
03 - 6 slices bacon
→ Vegetables
04 - 1 head butter or romaine lettuce, leaves separated and washed
05 - 1 medium tomato, diced
06 - 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
07 - 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
→ Seasonings
08 - 1/2 tsp garlic powder
09 - 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
10 - 1/2 tsp salt
11 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
→ Ranch Dressing
12 - 1/3 cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)
# Directions:
01 - Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to drain, then crumble or chop into pieces.
02 - In the same skillet, add the ground beef. Sprinkle with half the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through (about 6–8 minutes). Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
03 - Add the diced chicken breast to the skillet. Season with the remaining salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Cook until golden and cooked through (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from heat.
04 - Lay out the lettuce leaves on a large platter. Layer each leaf with a spoonful of beef, chicken, and bacon.
05 - Top with diced tomato, red onion, and cucumber slices.
06 - Drizzle each wrap with ranch dressing.
07 - Serve immediately, letting everyone assemble their own wraps if desired.
