Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Take one of the large flour tortillas and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken-bacon-cheese filling into the center of the tortilla. Tightly roll the tortilla around the filling, ensuring it’s secure.
- In a large skillet, pour in about an inch of oil and heat over medium heat until hot.
- Carefully add the prepared flautas to the hot oil in batches. Fry them each for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Upon draining, top each flauta with a generous handful of shredded lettuce, a sprinkle of diced tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream. Finally, add fresh cilantro to enhance the presentation and flavor.
Notes
To ensure your Loaded Bacon Chicken Ranch Flautas turn out perfectly crispy every time, consider using high-quality tortillas and maintaining the oil temperature between 350°F to 375°F.
