If you’ve been around here for a while, you already know I’m obsessed with all things buffalo. From my buffalo cauliflower wings to this healthy buffalo chicken dip, that spicy, tangy kick is one flavor I never get tired of.

And while I love ordering buffalo chicken wraps at restaurants, I wanted a quick, homemade version I could whip up anytime the craving hits. Enter this buffalo chicken wrap! I used store-bought chicken tenders to make it come together in minutes, and it has all the flavor you’d expect: creamy, spicy, crunchy, and totally satisfying.

Why I Love This Buffalo Chicken Wrap

Quick and easy: I make these in under 20 minutes, which is quicker than waiting on takeout and way more satisfying.
Versatile recipe: I’ll pack one in my lunchbox, throw them together for a no-stress dinner, or slice into pinwheels for a party appetizer. They always disappear fast!
Customizable: The spice level is totally up to you. I skip the hot sauce for the kids, but when it’s just Isaac and me, I go heavy on it!
Filling: I love that this wrap has plenty of protein, fresh veggies, and a soft tortilla. It feels like comfort food but still leaves me energized.

Ingredients Needed

flour tortillas – I like using burrito-size tortillas (Mission Carb Balance is my fave) so you can really pack them full. Smaller tortillas = sad, messy wrap.
dressing – ranch is my go-to (I usually use Bolthouse Farms Classic Ranch Yogurt Dressing), but blue cheese works too. Either way, it cools the spice and ties everything together.
crumbled blue cheese – a little goes a long way. Tangy, creamy, and the ultimate pairing with buffalo chicken.
romaine lettuce – adds that fresh crunch every good wrap needs.
carrot – extra crunch + a little sweetness to balance the heat.
red onion – raw onions work, but I really like using pickled onions for a tangy upgrade.
cooked chicken tenders – chop into bite-sized chunks. Homemade chicken tenders, store-bought, or even leftover grilled chicken all work. I usually grab frozen tenders to keep things easy. Applegate Organics Frozen Chicken Strips are my go-to.
buffalo sauce – the star of the show! I usually use Frank’s RedHot, but any buffalo sauce works. I also love Primal Kitchen and Noble Made if you want to switch it up.

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Wraps

Step 1: Start by tossing chopped chicken tenders with buffalo sauce.

Step 2: Warm your tortillas to make them easier to roll, then spread on ranch or blue cheese dressing.

Step 3: Layer on blue cheese crumbles, romaine, carrot strips, onion, and the buffalo chicken.

Step 4: Add extra sauce or dressing if you like, then roll the tortilla up tightly, slice, and enjoy!

Brittany’s Recipe Tips

Use fresh, crisp veggies: The crunch from the romaine and carrots balances the spicy chicken. If your lettuce looks a little sad, soak it in cold water for 10 minutes to perk it back up.
Toss, don’t drizzle: Coat the chicken in buffalo sauce before wrapping. It makes every bite flavorful. Drizzling the sauce on top just isn’t the same.
Wrap it tight: Fold in the sides and roll firmly to keep the filling from spilling out.

How to Store & Meal Prep Buffalo Chicken Wraps

These wraps taste best fresh, but a little prep ahead makes them just as easy for busy days.

Prep the chicken: Cook and chop the chicken up to 3 days in advance and store it in the fridge. When you’re ready to eat, toss it with buffalo sauce, assemble your wrap, and enjoy.
Pack for lunch: To avoid a soggy tortilla, keep the dressing on the side. Wrap the assembled ingredients in parchment or foil, then drizzle on the ranch or blue cheese right before eating.
