Updated on Jun 17, 2013

I've made these several times and by the time I have the 2nd sandwich or wrap made the first has somehow disappeared. We shove this into any bread or wrap we have available, and most recently (pictured) hot dog buns b/c they were all that was left in the house at the time.

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 - dry ranch dressing mix
  • 1/4 cup onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (your favorite, we choose pepper jack or sharp white cheddar)
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing (approx)
  • - sandwich rolls, wraps, hoagie rolls, etc. whatever you want to build this on
  • - salt and pepper to taste
  • - lettuce, sliced tomato, chopped scallions or onion, banana peppers, etc (all optional)

How To Make chicken-bacon ranch subs/wraps

  • Step 1
    In a large skillet, cook the bacon until done, reserving the grease. Set aside on a paper towel to absorb excess fat.
  • Step 2
    In the same pan, add the bacon grease, garlic, diced onion, diced pepper, chicken and the dry ranch dressing mix. Cook until the chicken is done and starting to lightly brown. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Set aside to rest on a paper towel to blot off any extra grease.
  • Step 3
    Assemble the sandwiches by scooping on some chicken, a sprinkle of cheese, drizzle some ranch dressing, a scoop of bacon pieces, a sprinkle of cheese, and if you choose, your veggies and top off with a drizzle of ranch dressing.
