BBQ Chicken Wraps

Fast and delicious BBQ chicken wraps with crunchy slaw, perfect for busy weeknights or packed lunches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 4 large (10-inch) tortillas
  • 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, grated
  • ½ cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Optional add-ins: diced bell peppers, chopped cilantro, hot sauce, sliced avocado, shredded cheddar or feta

Instructions

  1. Warm the chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, lightly spray with oil. Add shredded chicken and stir for 2–3 minutes. Mix in BBQ sauce and simmer 3–4 minutes until warmed through.
  2. Make the coleslaw: In a bowl, toss cabbage and carrots. In a separate bowl, whisk mayonnaise (or yogurt), apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Pour dressing over veggies and toss well. Add optional peppers, cilantro, or hot sauce. Rest for 10 minutes.
  3. Warm the tortillas: Heat tortillas in a dry skillet for 30–45 seconds per side until pliable.
  4. Assemble: Place ¼ of the BBQ chicken in the center of each tortilla. Top with ½ cup coleslaw, avocado slices, and cheese (if desired). Fold sides inward and roll tightly from the bottom. Toast seam-side down for 1–2 minutes for extra sturdiness.
  5. Serve: Enjoy warm with extra BBQ sauce or a squeeze of lime.

Notes

Keep slaw crisp by shredding cabbage thin and letting it rest in dressing. Warm tortillas just until soft to avoid cracking.
