Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup Frank’s buffalo wings sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- A pinch of salt
- 4 large flour tortillas

- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Steps to Flavor Town!
- Prep Your Chicken: Start by cutting your chicken breast into long, thin strips. It feels a tad therapeutic, don’t you think?
- Marinate: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, Buffalo sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Toss in those chicken strips and let them marinate for at least 10 minutes—or, if you have more time, let them soak up that flavor for up to 24 hours in the fridge. The longer, the better!
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add your marinated chicken strips and cook them for about 4-5 minutes until they’re fully cooked and no longer pink. The kitchen will smell amazing—bonus points for that!
- Assemble the Wraps: While that chicken is sizzling, lay your flour tortillas flat. Now, layer them up with romaine lettuce, a generous drizzle of Ranch dressing (because, let’s be real, we all love a good Ranch!), a sprinkle of shredded carrots, some red onions, and a handful of cheddar cheese.
- Add Chicken & Roll: Place a few strips of your deliciously cooked chicken down the center of each tortilla. Roll them up tightly like a burrito. Voilà!
- Serve & Enjoy: Serve with extra hot sauce or Ranch on the side for dipping. These wraps are perfect for any occasion, from a casual lunch to a fun dinner with friends.
Notes
- Don’t rush the marinade! Just let those flavors mix and mingle for a bit. Your future self will thank you.
- Extra crispy? If you prefer a bit of crunch, toss your wraps on a grill or in a pan after rolling to get them golden brown.
- Don’t worry if your sauce looks a little lumpy—it’s all part of the magic!
