About This Recipe
I was looking for an easy dinner that could be made quickly for busy nights. So, I decided to make a spicy chicken wrap recipe with buffalo chicken. It is the perfect quick grab and go dinner.
Wraps are so easy to make, fun to customize, and taste better than a sandwich in my opinion.
Ingredients Needed
You will need just a few ingredients to make a healthy buffalo ranch chicken wrap for lunch or dinner.
- Chicken - Diced chicken breasts or tenderloins cooked with salt and pepper is what we like to use. You can also use a rotisserie chicken, crispy chicken strips, or canned chicken instead.
- Buffalo Wing Sauce - You can make your own with hot sauce and melted butter or use your favorite brand. We like Sweet Baby Ray's wing sauce.
- Tortillas - Use your choice of tortilla to wrap everything up. Flour, high fiber, low carb, and gluten free tortillas are great choices.
- Veggies - Lettuce, tomatoes, and onions are what we like to fill our chicken wraps with.
- Cheese - Use shredded cheddar and blue cheese crumbles to give flavor and variety.
- Dressing - Ranch or blue cheese are good choices, depending on what you prefer with your buffalo chicken.
BRUCREW TIP: For a low carb option use large lettuce leaves to turn them into buffalo chicken lettuce wraps.
Our kids still won't touch blue cheese crumbles, but I have learned to love the flavor the crumbles add to buffalo chicken. Just don't hate me because I still drizzle my dinner wraps with ranch dressing. If you like blue cheese dressing, go for it.
How to make Buffalo Chicken Wraps
Tortillas filled with buffalo chicken, cheese, veggies, and dressing make a buffalo wrap a delicious dinner or the perfect game day meal.
- Toss the cooked chicken with buffalo sauce.
- Chop lettuce, tomatoes, and avocados.
- Heat tortillas in the microwave or a warm skillet, so they are softer and easier to roll up.
- Lay a tortilla flat and add the chicken and your toppings of choice.
- Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing.
- Roll carefully. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and tuck as you roll. Secure each side of the buffalo chicken wrap with a toothpick and cut in half.
Topping Ideas
When you have buffalo chicken wraps for dinner, fill bowls with different toppings and let everyone customize their chicken wraps with the toppings that they love. Here are some of the ingredients that we like to choose from.
- Veggies - romaine or iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes, red and green onions, celery, shredded carrots, avocados

- Dressing - ranch, blue cheese
Recipe Tips

Chicken wraps are best eaten the day they are made. If you have leftover ingredients, refrigerate them in individual containers.
You can wrap leftover wraps in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 days, but they may start to get a little soggy.
