Quick, easy, and packed with flavor—these Buffalo Chicken Wraps are perfect for a fast lunch, dinner, or snack. The heat from the Buffalo sauce pairs perfectly with the creamy ranch, crunchy lettuce, and juicy rotisserie chicken. Plus, you can throw them together in under 5 minutes!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (the ultimate time-saver!)
- 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (adjust based on how spicy you like it)
- 1 cup shredded lettuce (or any leafy green of choice)
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese if you prefer)
- 4 medium flour tortillas (large enough to hold all your fillings)
Optional Fillings (for extra flavor!):
- Sliced tomatoes
- Sliced onions
- Shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or even pepper jack for some extra kick!)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken:
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken with Buffalo sauce. Mix well until all the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce. You can add more sauce depending on how spicy you want it!
- Assemble the Wraps:
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface or plate.
- Divide the Buffalo chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas.
- Top the chicken with a generous amount of shredded lettuce, and drizzle with ranch dressing (or blue cheese, if that’s your thing).
- Add Optional Fillings (if using):
- If you’re feeling fancy, add some sliced tomatoes, onions, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese on top.
- Roll it Up:
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly like a burrito to hold everything in place.
- Serve:
- You can eat these warm (right after assembling), or wrap them up and store them for a cold snack or meal later!
Q&A
Q: Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
- A: Absolutely! These wraps are great for meal prep. You can make them ahead and refrigerate them for up to a day or two. Just wrap them tightly in foil or plastic wrap to keep them fresh.
Q: What if I don’t have rotisserie chicken?
- A: No problem! You can cook chicken breasts or thighs, shred them, and toss with the Buffalo sauce. You can also use canned chicken in a pinch.
Q: How can I make these wraps spicier?
- A: If you like it hot, try adding a few dashes of hot sauce or jalapeños to the filling. You can also use a spicier Buffalo sauce or top with a spicy ranch or blue cheese.
