Ingredients
  

1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

4 slices of bacon, chopped

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1 cup shredded lettuce (romaine or iceberg)

1/2 cup diced tomatoes

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

2 green onions, sliced

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Large lettuce leaves (such as romaine or butter lettuce for wrapping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts evenly with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. This step will enhance the overall flavor of your chicken.

    Cook the Bacon: In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add the chopped bacon. Cook the bacon until it turns crispy and golden brown, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove it from the skillet with a slotted spoon and let it drain on paper towels to absorb excess grease.

      Cook the Chicken: Using the same skillet with the leftover bacon fat, carefully add the seasoned chicken breasts. Cook them for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked through and have a beautiful golden crust (the internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).

        Shred the Chicken: After the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a plate and allow it to rest for about 5 minutes. Once rested, shred the chicken using two forks or a sharp knife, ensuring nice bite-sized pieces.

          Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the crispy bacon and ranch dressing. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated in the dressing.

            Prepare the Lettuce Wraps: Take the large lettuce leaves and place a generous scoop of the chicken and bacon mixture at the center of each leaf, creating a well-filled wrap.

              Add Toppings: Enhance each wrap with diced tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions. These toppings will add an extra layer of flavor and texture to your wraps.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve the lettuce wraps immediately while they are fresh. Enjoy your delicious and satisfying low-carb Chicken Bacon Ranch Lettuce Wraps!
