Buffalo Chicken Wraps
Buffalo chicken wraps bring together spicy, tangy buffalo-sauced chicken with crisp vegetables and a cooling element like ranch or blue cheese dressing, all rolled in a soft flour tortilla. They come together in about 30 minutes and require no oven time. A solid option when you want bold flavor without much fuss.
Equipment
- Large skillet
- Mixing bowl
- Tongs
- Knife
- Cutting board
Ingredients
Chicken Preparation
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts sliced into strips
- ⅓ cup buffalo sauce use your favorite brand
- 1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin preferred
Wrap Ingredients
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce fresh and crisp
- ½ cup diced tomatoes choose ripe and juicy ones
- ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese optional but recommended for authentic flavor
- ¼ cup ranch dressing for drizzling
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips, cooking until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken, tossing to coat evenly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, until the sauce slightly thickens and absorbs.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly divide the shredded lettuce among them, followed by the diced tomatoes, buffalo chicken, and crumbled blue cheese.
- Drizzle and Wrap: Drizzle each wrap with ranch dressing. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll from the bottom, keeping the filling tightly packed inside.
Notes
- For a milder version, use less buffalo sauce or substitute with BBQ sauce.
- To speed up the caramelization, add a pinch of sugar to the chicken when sautéing.
