A quick and flavorful Buffalo Chicken Wrap recipe perfect for a satisfying dinner. Tender strips of marinated chicken cooked on the stovetop are wrapped with crunchy romaine, shredded carrots, creamy avocado, cheddar cheese, and your choice of blue cheese or ranch dressing, all rolled inside a warm flour tortilla.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Chicken Marinade

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Frank’s Hot Sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of salt

Wrap Fillings

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup Blue cheese or Ranch dressing
  • 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrot, shredded
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken strips: Slice the boneless skinless chicken breasts into several long, thin strips to ensure quick and even cooking.
  2. Marinate the chicken: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Frank’s Hot Sauce, paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the chicken strips to the marinade and let them soak for at least 10 minutes, or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
  3. Cook the chicken: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink inside and nicely cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Prepare the tortillas: While the chicken is cooking, lay the flour tortillas flat on a plate. Spread a thin layer of blue cheese or ranch dressing evenly across each tortilla.
  5. Assemble the wraps: Top the dressed tortillas with chopped romaine lettuce, shredded carrots, sliced avocado, and shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Add cooked chicken and wrap: Arrange several cooked chicken strips down the center of each tortilla. Carefully wrap the tortillas tightly like a burrito to secure all the fillings inside.
  7. Serve: Serve the Buffalo Chicken Wraps immediately with extra hot sauce or dressing on the side if desired. Enjoy your flavorful and hearty meal!

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken for longer for a more intense buffalo flavor.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas if you want to make this wrap gluten-free.
  • For a spicier wrap, add extra hot sauce or sprinkle some cayenne pepper into the marinade.
  • Swap cheddar cheese for mozzarella or Monterey Jack if preferred.
  • Leftover wraps can be wrapped tightly in foil and refrigerated for up to 1 day, but are best fresh.
