Buffalo Chicken Wrap Ingredients

Ingredients needed for crispy buffalo chicken wrap.
  • Chicken Breasts: Slice the breasts horizontally into halves, so they are thinner and cook quicker. 
  • Salt and Pepper: Season to taste with kosher salt and cracked black pepper. 
  • Breading: A three-part dredge of flour, eggs, and panko bread crumbs give these chicken strips a crispy coating. 
  • Vegetable Oil: Use your favorite light, neutral oil for frying. 
  • Buffalo Sauce: Select your favorite store-bought buffalo sauce, such as Frank’s hot sauce. 
  • Tortillas: Use burrito-size flour tortillas or substitute flavored or low-carb wraps if preferred. 
  • Lettuce: Shredded iceberg lettuce adds crunch and coolness to the wrap.
  • Ranch: We used ranch dressing, but you can substitute blue cheese if preferred. 

How To Make Crispy Buffalo Chicken Wrap

How to dredge chicken for pan frying.
  • Prepare the chicken. Pat dry the chicken halves with a kitchen towel and season them with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken first in the flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally in panko bread crumbs until well coated.

  • Coat with buffalo sauce. Cut the crispy chicken into strips and add it to a bowl along with the buffalo sauce and coat them well.
  • Assemble the wrap. To assemble the wrap, warm the tortillas and arrange the chopped lettuce in the center. Add the chicken pieces and top it with a drizzle of ranch. Seal the tortilla like a burrito and slice it in half and enjoy. 

Tips To Make This Spicy Chicken Wrap

  • Use leftover chicken to make this wrap even faster. 
  • Replace the fried chicken with grilled chicken for a lighter sandwich. 
  • Stir a little honey into the buffalo sauce for a touch of sweetness. 
  • Customize this sandwich with sliced avocado, crumbled blue cheese, bacon or your favorite additions. 
  • Warm the tortilla in the microwave or a skillet before filling, as it will make them so much easier to fold. 
  • Don’t overfill the wraps. 
  • Always cook the chicken to a minimum temperature of 165 degrees F when checked with a meat thermometer. 
  • If you have trouble keeping the wrap closed, secure it with a toothpick.
  • When making for a crowd, prep these wraps in advance and serve cold.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make buffalo sauce?

You can purchase premade buffalo sauce, or you can make your own by combining hot sauce with melted butter. You can add garlic, Worcestershire sauce and a splash of vinegar for the desired flavor. Butter makes the sauce silky and smooth and can control the sauce’s heat level. 

What kind of tortilla is best for a wrap?

Wraps come in all different flavors such as flour, spinach, sun-dried tomato and low carb. The giant burrito-size flour tortillas are the easiest for making a wrap. If you use smaller tortillas, you may need to fold them more like a taco.

How to store and reheat a buffalo chicken wrap?

I like to serve these warm, right after they have been assembled, but they can be made ahead. Wraps will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwaved, then crisped in a warm skillet or grill pan. 

Can I freeze this spicy chicken wrap?

I wouldn’t recommend freezing these wraps, but you can freeze the leftover fried chicken in an airtight container for up to 3 months. 

What to serve with Crispy Buffalo Chicken Wrap?

This easy lunch wrap will pair perfectly with Crispy Air Fryer French Fries, Crispy Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries, Spicy Baked Zucchini Fries, or The BEST Crispy Potato Wedges.

    Easy and delicious! Two things I did differently: cooked the chicken in the air fryer instead of a skillet and added shredded cheddar/jack cheese to the wrap.
