Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this wrap ahead of time?

It is best enjoyed fresh, but you can prep the ingredients beforehand and assemble the wrap just before eating to prevent the tortilla from getting soggy.

What is the best chicken to use for this recipe?

Leftover rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken breast, or baked frozen breaded chicken tenders all work wonderfully.

How can I make this wrap less spicy?

You can mix a tablespoon of melted butter into the buffalo sauce to mellow out the heat, or use a mild wing sauce.
