Method
- Mix the chicken with Buffalo magic. Grab a bowl, throw in your shredded chicken and Buffalo sauce. Stir it around until everything's coated — it should look orange-ish and smell like wings. If it looks dry, add a splash more sauce.
- Warm your wraps up. Throw them in a dry skillet for like 30 seconds per side, or microwave them wrapped in a damp paper towel for 20 seconds. Warm wraps hold together way better than cold ones.
- Lay out your wrap on a flat surface. Spread a thin layer of blue cheese or ranch down the middle, then add a handful of lettuce. Don't overstuff — you want enough filling to taste good, not enough to explode when you bite into it.
- Layer it up. Put your Buffalo chicken on top of the lettuce, then add celery, red onion, and avocado if you're using it. Keep it balanced so it actually stays together.
- Roll tight and wrap it. Fold in the sides first, then roll it away from you, pulling it tight as you go. If you're packing it for lunch, wrap the whole thing in foil or parchment paper — keeps it together and keeps Buffalo sauce off your keyboard.
Notes
Make the chicken ahead on Sunday and keep it in the fridge all week — game changer for weekday lunches. Keep the sauce and wraps separate from the veggies if you're assembling ahead, or just assemble right before you eat. Cold tortillas are the enemy — always warm them up first. If you want it spicier, use a hotter sauce or add cayenne. Blue cheese is more authentic wing flavor, but use ranch if that's your thing. Rotisserie chicken shortcut is where I cheap out without losing quality — just grab one from the market.
