Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- Beef bacon, cooked until crispy
- Large flour tortillas (10-12 inches)
- 4–5 cups green and red cabbage, finely shredded
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare the Buffalo Chicken: Cook about 1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breast by poaching in simmering water or baking at 375°F (190°C) until cooked through (internal temperature 165°F / 74°C), about 20-25 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly, then shred or dice it. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of buffalo sauce and toss until coated. Set aside.
- Cook the Beef Bacon: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lay the beef bacon strips in a single layer and cook for 5-8 minutes per side until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat, then crumble or chop into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- Make the Blue Cheese Slaw: In a large bowl, combine 4-5 cups of shredded cabbage and 1/2 cup of shredded carrots. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar (or maple syrup), 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder until smooth. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots, add 1/2 cup of crumbled blue cheese, and toss until well coated. Let sit in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out a large flour tortilla. Spoon a generous amount of the buffalo chicken mixture (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup) down the center of the tortilla, leaving space on the edges. Sprinkle crispy beef bacon crumbles over the chicken and add a scoop of blue cheese slaw on top. Fold in the two sides of the tortilla and tightly roll from the bottom upwards.
- Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally before serving to reveal the colorful layers. Serve immediately and enjoy!
