The Buffalo Chicken Wrap combines the fiery heat of buffalo sauce with the coolness of creamy dressings and fresh vegetables, all encased in a soft tortilla wrap.
The dominant flavor is the spicy and tangy buffalo sauce, typically made with cayenne pepper, vinegar, and butter. This is often balanced by the richness of ranch or blue cheese dressing. The chicken itself provides a savory base, and vegetables like lettuce and tomato offer freshness and crunch. The tortilla wrap adds a neutral, slightly sweet element that holds everything together.
Chicken Preparation
Use high-quality chicken, either grilled, baked, or fried. Ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly and seasoned well before adding the buffalo sauce.
Sauce Selection
Experiment with different buffalo sauce brands to find your preferred level of heat and tanginess. Some sauces are milder, while others pack a serious punch.
Dressing Choice
Ranch and blue cheese are classic pairings, but consider other creamy dressings like avocado ranch or even a light vinaigrette for a different flavor profile.
Wrap Technique
Don't overfill the wrap to prevent tearing. Fold in the sides and roll tightly for a secure and neat wrap.
Tortilla Warmth
Lightly warming the tortilla before assembling makes it more pliable and easier to roll.
