A quick and flavorful crispy buffalo chicken wrap with fresh veggies, perfect for a satisfying meal that balances spicy heat and fresh crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 crispy chicken tenders, cooked and crispy
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 2 medium celery stalks, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium carrot, shredded or julienned
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Butter or oil for warming tortillas (optional)

Instructions

  1. If using store-bought crispy chicken tenders, warm them in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 8-10 minutes to refresh their crunch. If making from scratch, cook chicken strips in hot oil until golden and crispy (about 5-7 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.
  2. Place warm chicken in a mixing bowl, pour 1/2 cup buffalo sauce over, and gently toss until each piece is well coated but still crispy. Set aside.
  3. Thinly slice celery sticks, shred carrot, halve cherry tomatoes, and chop romaine lettuce. Rinse and dry well to keep fresh and crisp.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and warm each tortilla for about 20 seconds per side, or until pliable. Optionally, brush with melted butter or oil.
  5. Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread about 1 tablespoon ranch dressing evenly in the center. Layer with 2-3 buffalo chicken tenders, romaine, celery, carrot, and cherry tomatoes. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Fold the bottom edge over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to enclose everything securely. Use a toothpick if needed.
  7. Optionally, return the wrap to the skillet seam side down, pressing gently, and toast for 1-2 minutes each side until golden and cheese melts slightly.
  8. Slice the wrap in half and serve immediately with extra ranch or buffalo sauce on the side.

Notes

Keep chicken warm when tossing with buffalo sauce to maintain crispiness. Do not overload the wrap to prevent bursting. Toasting the wrap seals in flavors and keeps chicken crunchy. Store components separately if making ahead to maintain freshness.
