Buffalo Chicken Wraps

"Rotisserie chicken's spicy second act. Takes five minutes if you don't count the time spent wondering why you don't make these every day."

The Game Plan

  1. Pull about half the meat off the rotisserie chicken. Use two forks and go with the grain — dark meat from the thighs shreds easiest.

  2. Place the shredded chicken in a medium bowl and toss with the buffalo sauce until everything is evenly coated. Start with 1/4 cup and add more if you like it hot.

  3. Warm the tortillas: stack them between two damp paper towels and microwave for 20-30 seconds. This makes them pliable and less likely to crack.

  4. Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface. Think of it as a blank canvas for spicy art.

  5. Lay down a line of shredded lettuce across the center, leaving about 2 inches on each side.

  6. Add a generous portion of the buffalo chicken on top of the lettuce.

  7. Sprinkle with cheese, add diced celery if using, and lay a few avocado slices across.

  8. Drizzle with ranch dressing. Be generous — the ranch is doing important cooling work here.

  9. Fold in both sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up, tucking the filling in as you go.

  10. Slice in half on a diagonal if you want it to look restaurant-worthy.

  11. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  12. For a crispy finish, heat a dry skillet over medium heat and place each wrap seam-side down for 1-2 minutes. Flip and sear the other side until golden.

  13. Slice each wrap in half on a diagonal. It looks better and is easier to eat. Win-win.
