Anything involving buffalo chicken is always a huge hit in our house. Wings, tenders, buffalo ranch sauce, buffalo chicken pasta you name it but one of our new favorites are these buffalo chicken wraps! 

Why you should make these

  • Quick meal that can be made in less than 10 minutes.
  • This wrap recipe has an explosion of flavor and texture.  
  • Packs well for a cold lunch and good leftovers.

Ingredients needed

Chicken – I am using shredded chicken from chicken that I baked. If you want a short-cut, try using rotisserie chicken. This is also a great leftover chicken recipe.

Buffalo sauce – Use this easy homemade buffalo sauce recipe or bottled from the store. 

Lettuce – Adds a nice, cool crunch to the wrap.

Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing – This is your preference.

Cheese – Shredded cheddar or colby jack cheese works well or crumbled Blue cheese is also a great option. 

Tortillas – I like to use the burrito size wraps because they are easier to roll and fold up.

Recipe tips and variations

  • I recommend warming up tortillas on the stove, microwave or in the oven. You don’t want the to be to hot, just warm enough to make them pliable. This makes them easier to fold and wrap.
  • If you don’t like shredded chicken, simply cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces, cook and toss in sauce. I have also made this with ground chicken. Cook the ground chicken in a skillet and toss in sauce.
  • Try changing up the tortilla with a spinach wrap or make it low-carb by wrapping in a large piece of lettuce.
  • For a fried buffalo chicken wrap, use cooked, breaded chicken tenders. 
  • Don’t forget to try this easy homemade Buffalo sauce that is perfect for these wraps.

Buffalo chicken wrap topping ideas

  • Diced cucumbers
  • Diced celery
  • Diced bell pepper
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Crumbled blue cheese or dressing
  • Pickles
  • Diced avocado

How to store

Store: Wrap these up in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator. If I am going to eat the next day, I will leave the ranch out and use it as a dipping sauce. They will last about 2 days in the refrigerator.

  1. I made this for my family tonight and it was a big hit. My husband had 2 helpings! The kids – all 3 of them enjoyed it. I will keep this on a monthly rotation for sure!

  2. 5 stars
    Buffalo chicken wraps are very easy to make. I used sweet baby rays buffalo sauce for some extra flavor. Also, after I assembled my wrap I put the wrap in a small sauce pan to melt the cheese inside and give the outside a little crisp.

  3. Has anyone ever tried this cold? Like if I make it tonight and pack for my husbands lunch tomorrow would it still taste fine?

  4. 5 stars
    Looking up your slaw and also your buffalo sauce. These look delicious. I love buffalo chicken but my family doesn’t like the heat. However sometimes that just means MORE FOR ME!! Love air fryer potatoes fries or tots with so many of our meals here too.
