Ingredients you will need

Below is a list of ingredients you will need to make this sandwich. Full measurements are listed further down below in the recipe card.

Ingredients to make buffalo chicken wrap.
  • Chicken breast: To cut down on time, you can use rotisserie chicken. I do this all the time.
  • Oil: You can swap with any other oil or cooking oil spray.
  • Seasonings: You will need onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Buffalo sauce: They have some that are low in sugar out there. Or you can make your own at home if you like. Check out my post on how to make homemade buffalo sauce.
  • Crumbled blue cheese: Many don’t like blue cheese, so sub this with crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese.
  • Veggies: Romaine lettuce or any green leafy veggie like spinach.
  • Tortilla: I use whole wheat tortillas but use your favorite. So many out there.

How to make Buffalo chicken wrap

  • Rub the chicken with oil and seasonings. Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 7-9 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Allow the grilled chicken to cool, then chop it. In a mixing bowl, combine the grilled chopped chicken with buffalo sauce and crumbled blue cheese.

  • Top with carrots and celery. Roll tightly and cut in half to serve. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use leftover chicken?

Yes. If you have leftover chicken or want to use rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time, you can.

is it served warm or cold?

You can serve this chicken wrap warm or cold. If it is warm when you first prepare it, then great; otherwise, I do not recommend reheating it. You can serve it cold.

How do I store it?

If you have leftovers and would like to save them for later, you can wrap them well and place them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Do not freeze. Once ready to serve, enjoy cold.
