Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• ½ cup hot sauce Franks
• 2 cups diced cooked chicken
• Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
• 2 ½ cups shredded romaine
• ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
• ½ cup shredded carrots
• ½ shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese
• ½ cup ranch or bleu cheese dressing
• 4 large flour tortilla wraps

Instructions

• Melt the butter in a skillet over low heat. Add the hot sauce stirring in until well combined and heated through. Stir in the chicken until heated through. Season with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste. 
• Lay out the tortillas and to each add some shredded romaine, 1/4 of the red onion, 1/4 of the shredded carrot, 1/4 of the buffalo chicken, and 1/4 of the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack Cheese. 
• Drizzle with a little ranch or bleu cheese and top with a little more romaine. Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll up tightly burrito style.  Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing. 

Notes

• I like to use Frank’s Redhot Sauce for this recipe but if you have a favorite buffalo sauce you can use that and eliminate the need for butter.
• Blue cheese crumbles are a great substitute for the cheddar and Monterey Jack Cheese.
• The carrots and red onion really add some snap and crunch but you could also try adding other veggies like chopped celery, green onions, jalapenos, avocado, spinach, or chopped purple cabbage.
• Any large tortilla will work. I personally like the high fiber low carb ones.
• Use shredded romaine because it is a little sturdier than iceberg or spring greens. Put the shredded romaine on the top and the bottom to create a barrier so the hot sauce does not soak through the wrap.
• These wraps are best served promptly but they will hold up fairly well for several hours if wrapped and refrigerated.
