Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cooked chicken nuggets or shredded chicken, chopped Bite-sized pieces work best
  • 1 cup mild buffalo wing sauce Adjust for heat preference
  • 4 cups coleslaw mix Pre-packaged saves time
  • 1 cup coleslaw dressing Creamy style is recommended
  • 4 large flour tortillas Burrito size for easier rolling
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Sharp or mild works well
  • Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing Optional for dipping
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil Optional for searing

Equipment

  • 2 Large mixing bowl For chicken and slaw
  • 1 Skillet Optional for searing
  • 1 serrated knife For clean cuts
  • 1 Cutting board Assembly surface

Method
 

  1. Chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl. This ensures every bite has an equal amount of meat.
  2. Toss the chicken with the buffalo wing sauce until fully coated. The chicken should look bright orange and glossy.
  3. Mix the coleslaw cabbage blend with the coleslaw dressing in a separate bowl. The vegetables will become slightly softened and creamy.
  4. Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds or briefly in a skillet. This makes the tortilla pliable and prevents tearing during rolling.
  5. Layer the coleslaw, buffalo chicken, and shredded cheese in the center of each tortilla. A centered pile allows for a tight, secure fold.
  6. Fold the sides in, roll the tortilla tightly burrito-style, and slice in half. You should see a neat spiral of ingredients at the cut end.
  7. Optionally, sear the wrap seam-side down in a hot skillet with oil for 2 minutes per side. The exterior becomes golden brown and crunchy.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap the flour tortilla for a large lettuce leaf; use leftover rotisserie chicken to save even more time. To prevent sogginess, assemble the wraps just before eating.
