How To Make Breaded Buffalo Chicken Wrap

  1. Make the buffo tenders with chicken breast, eggs, flour, and seasoning. Pan-fry the buffalo chicken tenders until crispy and drain excess fat on kitchen paper.
  2. Take a large flour tortilla and layer it with chopped lettuce, thinly sliced onion, and diced tomatoes. Cut the carrot Jullienne with a mandolin slicer and sprinkle it on top of the other vegetables.
  3. Add buffalo tenders and pour buffalo sauce on top. Now wrap the tortilla burrito-style so all the goodness stays in the tortilla.
  4. You can serve this wrap cold or warm it in a warm skillet coated with cooking spray. This takes about 5 minutes to warm through. Be careful as tortillas can brown very fast so when you want them warm do it gradually.

How To Store Buffalo Chicken Wraps

You have several options to store buffalo chicken wraps. However, as this wrap contains lettuce it is wise to keep this separately from the wraps.

Lettuce contains water and when you keep that in a wrap your tortilla can become soggy.

  • Refrigerator – you can store these wraps in the fridge. It is recommended to store the tortillas, chicken tenders, sauce, and lettuce separately. You can keep the tortillas at room temperature in an airtight food container. Put the salad in an airtight container as well as the chicken tenders with buffalo sauce. Keep it for up to 2 days or however long your salad stays fresh
  • Freezer – you can also store these wraps in the freezer without the salad. It is recommended to keep the ingredients separately and then assemble them once reheated. It is possible to store the whole wrap but again do not add lettuce as this doesn’t freeze well. After reheating the wraps, you can add some lettuce
