How to Make It

Mix
- Mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until well coated.
Ensure every piece of chicken is covered in sauce for maximum flavor.
Prepare
- Prepare the tortillas by laying them on a flat surface.
Spread
- Spread ranch dressing on each tortilla.
A generous layer of ranch will help balance the spiciness of the buffalo sauce.
Fill

Divide it evenly to ensure both wraps have plenty of chicken.
Top
- Top with lettuce, diced tomatoes, and cheese if using.
Placement is key; distribute toppings evenly across both wraps.
Fold
- Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and roll it up tightly.
This step prevents the filling from spilling out.
Cut
- Cut the wraps in half and serve immediately.
Serving them fresh keeps the tortillas soft and pliable.
How to Store It

Freezer: No, wraps may become soggy.
Reheat: Microwave on low for 30-45 seconds.
