Make these quick and easy Buffalo Chicken Wraps bursting with spicy flavor and crunch. They are made with buffalo sauce, ready-cooked rotisserie chicken breasts, shredded romaine lettuce, thin slices of red onion, shredded carrots, and shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack Cheese, all drizzled with your favorite bottled ranch or bleu cheese dressing. Serve with a side of French fries or potato chips.
How to make Buffalo Chicken Wraps
Start by melting the butter in a large skillet over low heat on the stovetop. Then add the hot sauce stirring in, until well combined and heated through. Stir in the chicken until heated through.
Now add a little bit of the shredded romaine, thin sliced red onion, shredded carrot, and about 1/4 of the buffalo chicken mixture to a wrap. Now top with some shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack Cheese, and a little more lettuce. Then drizzle with a little ranch or bleu cheese. Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll up tightly burrito style.
Recipe notes and helpful tips
- I like to use Frank’s Redhot Sauce for this recipe, but if you have a favorite buffalo sauce or wing sauce, you can use that and eliminate the need for butter.
- Blue cheese crumbles are a great substitute for cheddar and Monterey Jack Cheese.
- The carrots and red onion really add some snap and crunch, but you could also try adding other veggies like chopped celery, green onions, jalapenos, avocado, spinach, or chopped purple cabbage.
- Any large tortilla will work. I personally like the high-fiber, low-carb ones.
- Use shredded romaine because it is a little sturdier than iceberg or spring greens. Put the shredded romaine on the top and the bottom to create a barrier so the hot sauce does not soak through the wrap.
- These wraps are best served promptly, but they will hold up fairly well for several hours if wrapped and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

WE have been on a wrap frenzy lately. It’s better for packing lunches than bread too (because we used to pack sandwiches).
