How to Make Buffalo Chicken Tortilla Wraps

Football season is finally here and it always has me dreaming of all things appetizers.  For me, football games and finger foods go hand in hand which might be why I love football so much.  My Darb is always down for Buffalo Chicken Wings but I decided to take all of the elements and roll them in a tortilla for an extra special treat.  These Buffalo Chicken Tortilla Wraps are loaded with everything you love about ordering wings and I can’t wait for you to try them!  Keep scrolling to see the ingredient that makes them so super simple!

I need to admit something before we go any further {I feel like I do this a lot}.  Spicy food and June {that’s me} don’t really love each other…like at all!

So buffalo sauce isn’t exactly my favorite but it is definitely my families and so that means majority rules.  When that happens mama sucks it up and makes what everyone likes.  Boy am I glad I did.

I have learned that it is good to step outside of your comfort zone.  Making and eating these Buffalo Chicken Tortilla Wraps was definitely one of those moments.

When you have both hot sauce and blue cheese in something I would normally head the other direction BUT these babies are DELICIOUS!

How to Make your Buffalo Chicken Tortilla Wraps with Canned Chicken

Begin by combining the cream cheese {it binds the ingredients}, the mayonnaise {flavor and binder} and buffalo sauce {flavor and heat}.  

I used a hand held mixer for this job because I wanted to have a creamy texture.

Once you have the texture you want it is time to add all of the other ingredients…

  • Canned Chicken aka secret ingredient {you could use baked or grilled too but canned makes this dish so easy}
  • Blue Cheese {blue cheese and Buffalo Wings are iconic friends, just trust me}
  • Finely Chopped Celery {celery gives texture and a cooling element you can’t get from anything else}
  • Grated Cheese {you didn’t think I could stop with just one kind of cheese did you?}
  • Sliced Green Onion {more flavor and color}

Stir the ingredients and use about 1/3-1/2 cup on each tortilla.  Spread the filling out to within a 1/2 inch around the edge of each of tortilla.

You want to have a nice even layer of buffalo chicken filling.

Roll the tortilla up tightly {but not tight enough that the filling comes out} and roll each one in plastic wrap.  Refrigerate them for at least 1-2 hours.  This will allow the filling to set up and make cutting them a breeze.

Once they have set up unwrap and cut each roll into 1/2 inch slices {you should get 5-6 per tortilla}.

To get a nice clean cut I like to use a serrated knife and wipe it clean between each slice.

I sent them to poker night with my Darb and they were a hit!  Make them for yourself, for a football game, for the holidays…heck for any ole’ day…you will certainly be glad that you did!
