Chicken, Beef & Bacon Lettuce Wraps (Printable)

Protein-packed wraps featuring juicy chicken, beef, and bacon with fresh vegetables and ranch.

# Ingredient List:

→ 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)

# Steps:

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. Serve immediately, letting everyone assemble their own wraps if desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Three different proteins mean every bite feels like a treat not a compromise
  • The crispy bacon brings a smoky crunch that ties everything together beautifully
02 -
  • Cooking the proteins in order from bacon to beef to chicken layers flavors throughout the entire dish
  • The lettuce can get soggy quickly so assemble just before serving
03 -
  • Pat the lettuce leaves completely dry before filling them to prevent sogginess
  • Keep the cooked proteins warm in a low oven while you prep the vegetables
