Ingredients You’ll Need

To make these delicious Buffalo Chicken Wraps, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or cubed)
• 1/4 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to your spice preference)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing (optional)
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (for garnish)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Pro Tip:

For the chicken – you can use rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken, or even leftover chicken breast. For a crispier texture, pan-fry your chicken in a little oil before adding the buffalo sauce!

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

Start by heating the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the shredded or cubed chicken to the pan, and cook for 2-3 minutes until it’s heated through. Then, pour in your buffalo sauce, stirring to coat the chicken evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the flavors to combine. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Assemble the Wrap

Lay out your flour tortillas on a clean surface. In the center of each tortilla, place a layer of shredded lettuce. Then, add a generous amount of the buffalo chicken mixture on top of the lettuce. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and drizzle a little ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing if desired. Add a sprinkle of chopped green onions for an extra pop of flavor.

Step 3: Roll and Serve

Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly, making sure all the fillings stay inside. Cut the wrap in half, and your Buffalo Chicken Wrap is ready to serve!

Pro Tip:

If you want an extra crispy wrap, after rolling, place it seam side down in a hot pan for 1-2 minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy.

Variations You Can Try

• Veggie Buffalo Wrap: Swap the chicken for crispy tofu or roasted cauliflower for a vegetarian twist on this classic.
• Extra Spicy: Add some jalapeño slices or a dash of hot sauce to kick up the heat even more.
• Cheese Lover’s Delight: Use a blend of mozzarella and cheddar for a melty, cheesy experience.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Wrap

• Don’t Overstuff: Be careful not to overstuff the wrap with too much chicken or cheese. This can make rolling the wrap difficult and cause it to fall apart.
• Warm the Tortilla: Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
• Make It a Meal: Serve with some crispy fries or a side of carrot sticks and celery to complete the meal.
