How to Make Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap?

This recipe is fun to make and simple to follow. Here’s how you can create your own Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap masterpiece.

Step 1. Prepare the Chicken 🐔

Start by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Coat the chicken pieces in this mixture. This creates a light breading that crisps up beautifully without being too heavy.

Step 2. Cook the Chicken 🍳

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and use a splash of oil to cook the chicken. Cook until golden brown on each side, about 10 minutes. Toss the cooked chicken in the buffalo wing sauce until every piece is coated evenly. The spicy aroma at this stage is irresistible! If you’re a fan of bold flavors, you might want to try incorporating the Buffalo Wild Wings Asian Zing Sauce into your chicken for an exotic twist.

Step 3. Assemble the Wrap 🌯

Lay your tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a layer of ranch dressing on the bottom third of the tortilla, followed by the buffalo chicken, lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese.

Step 4. Wrap it Up! 📍

Carefully roll the tortilla into a wrap. Tuck in the sides as you go to keep the fillings secure. You can slice it in half for easy serving or pack it whole for on-the-go meals.

Step 5. Optional Toasting 🔥

If you want an extra crispy bite, heat the wrap briefly in a dry skillet or press for that golden exterior. Yum!

Tips for Making the Recipe

Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your chicken isn’t too cold out of the fridge to ensure even cooking.
Control the Heat: If you’re feeding kids or are spice-averse, cut back on the cayenne or use a milder wing sauce.
Crispiness Tip: For an even crispier chicken, double-dredge by dipping the pieces back into the flour mixture before cooking.

How to Serve Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap?

Presentation matters as much as the flavor! Arrange your wraps on a platter and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or crumbled blue cheese. Serve them alongside potato wedges, tortilla chips, or a crisp side salad for added crunch. Adding a small bowl of buffalo sauce for dipping also elevates the experience. For a twist, try pairing this wrap with this Buffalo Wild Wings Pasta Salad for a complete and satisfying meal.

Make Ahead and Storage

These wraps are perfect for meal prepping! Just follow these guidelines to keep them fresh and tasty.

If making ahead, store the assembled wraps in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To avoid sogginess, keep the dressing separate until you’re ready to serve. For longer storage, you can freeze the chicken after prepping and thaw it the day you plan to make the wraps. Plus, reheating the chicken in a skillet keeps it crispy!
