Why You’ll Love This Buffalo Chicken Wrap

  • Tangy and flavorful: Buffalo sauce, paprika, and garlic powder give the chicken a savory, spicy kick.

  • Fresh and crunchy: Romaine lettuce and shredded carrots add crisp texture.

  • Creamy filling: Avocado, cheddar cheese, and your favorite dressing balance the heat.

  • Easy meal: Prepare the chicken and assemble the wraps for lunch or dinner.

  • Customizable: Change the dressing, tortilla, or vegetables to make each wrap your own.

Tips for the Best Wraps

  • Slice the chicken into thin, even strips so it cooks quickly and evenly.

  • Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes for more flavor.

  • Cook the chicken until it is no longer pink and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

  • Avoid overfilling the tortillas, which makes them harder to roll.

  • For a little more heat, serve with extra buffalo sauce.

Serving Ideas

Serve these wraps with roasted potatoes, a simple green salad, fresh fruit, or crunchy vegetables. They also make a convenient lunch when assembled just before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use ranch instead of blue cheese dressing?

Yes. Both ranch and blue cheese dressing work well with the spicy chicken.

Can I make the chicken ahead of time?

Yes. Cooked chicken can be refrigerated in an airtight container and reheated before assembling the wraps.

How can I make the wraps spicier?

Add extra buffalo sauce or serve the wraps with hot sauce on the side.

Can I use whole-wheat tortillas?

Yes. Whole-wheat tortillas are a suitable alternative to regular flour tortillas.

How should I store leftovers?

Store the cooked chicken and fresh ingredients separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Assemble the wraps shortly before serving for the best texture.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1×) yields 4 servings

  • 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Frank’s hot sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoons Paprika
  • 1/2 tablespoons Garlic powder
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 4 large Flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup Blue cheese or ranch dressing
  • 2 cups Chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup Shredded carrots
  • 1/2 Avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the Chicken

    Slice the chicken breasts into several long, thin strips so they cook quickly and evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Buffalo Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, hot sauce, paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 10 minutes, or refrigerate for longer if preparing ahead.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for approximately 4–5 minutes, turning as needed, until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  4. 4

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Lay the flour tortillas on a clean surface or plate. Spread a thin layer of blue cheese or ranch dressing over each tortilla.

  5. 5

    Add the Fresh Ingredients

    Divide the chopped romaine lettuce, shredded carrots, sliced avocado, and shredded cheddar cheese among the tortillas.

  6. 6

    Fill and Roll

    Arrange the cooked buffalo chicken down the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll each tortilla tightly, burrito-style.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Cut the wraps in half if desired. Serve immediately with extra dressing or hot sauce on the side.
