Description
Honey BBQ chicken wraps bring together tender, shredded chicken glazed in a tangy-sweet sauce that you can wrap up with fresh toppings for an easy meal. Layers of crispy lettuce, creamy ranch, and melted cheese make each bite satisfying, so you get something that tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen when it takes just minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
Protein and Base:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 4 large tortillas
Sauce:
- 1/2 cup honey BBQ sauce
Vegetables and Cheese:
- 1 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1/2 cup tomato, diced
- 1/2 cup cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Combine your 2 cups of shredded cooked chicken with 1/2 cup of honey BBQ sauce in a mixing bowl, stirring until the chicken is evenly coated.
- Heat each of your 4 large tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side to make them pliable.
- Lay out one warmed tortilla and distribute 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce across the center, leaving space on the sides.
- Add 2 tablespoons of diced tomato and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese on top of your lettuce.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup of the BBQ chicken mixture onto the fillings in your tortilla.
- Fold in the sides of your tortilla first, then roll it away from you firmly so everything stays tucked inside.
- Slice your wrapped tortilla diagonally down the middle using a sharp knife, then repeat with the remaining 3 tortillas.
Notes
- Shred your chicken into bite-sized pieces so it distributes evenly throughout each wrap and stays moist when mixed with the sauce.
- Warm your tortillas just enough to make them pliable—overheating them makes them crack and tear when folded.
- Layer your lettuce and tomato first to create a barrier that keeps the tortillas from getting soggy from the chicken mixture.
- Wrap each tortilla tightly from one end, folding in the sides as you go, so everything stays intact when sliced and doesn’t fall apart when eating.
- For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for seasoned black beans or crispy tofu tossed with the same honey BBQ sauce.
