BBQ Chicken Wraps

Tasty BBQ chicken wraps are a top-tier quick and portable lunch! Assemble them quickly and then package up for the tastiest simple meal.

Ingredients

  • 4-6 large flour tortillas or flatbreads
  • 2 cups green leaf or romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 2-3 cups pulled BBQ chicken cold, see note
  • pickles optional
  • extra BBQ sauce for dipping

Instructions

  • Place tortillas on a work surface and lay a row of lettuce leaves lengthwise down the middle. Leave a bit of room on the ends so that you can fold the tortilla in later. Top with generous sprinkles of carrots and cabbage.

  • Add chicken on top of the veggies, then carefully roll the tortilla up around the filling, rolling tightly and folding in the sides as you go.

  • I like to cut the wrap in half at this point, which works well as long as you keep it seam side down on the cutting board. Enjoy right away with optional extra BBQ sauce for dipping or pickles, or package and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.

Notes

  1. Chicken: I specifically designed and plan this recipe as a way to use extras from my crockpot BBQ chicken recipe, because that recipe is so easy to batch cook in large quantities. If you’d rather for any reason, just make these wraps by tossing 2-3 cups of shredded cooked chicken (such as from a rotisserie) with about ½ cup of your favorite BBQ sauce. Stir very well and use more or less sauce to taste—you just don’t want it too saucy when you add it to the wrap, otherwise it gets messy!
  2. Coleslaw Optional: If you happen to have coleslaw in the fridge, you can tuck this into a wrap in place of plain shredded cabbage and carrot, but keep in mind this will make wraps more soggy, especially if they're not being eaten right away. To offset this, press out as much extra liquid from the coleslaw as you can.
  3. Best Packaging: These glass meal prep boxes work perfectly. Tiny to-go containers for extra BBQ dipping sauce are worth every penny!
