Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce

Coleslaw

  • 2 cups coleslaw mix (pre-packaged or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Wrap Assembly

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the BBQ chicken: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the shredded chicken and BBQ sauce. Stir well to ensure the chicken is thoroughly coated with the sauce. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
  2. Make the coleslaw: In another bowl, mix the coleslaw mix with mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and the coleslaw mixture is creamy.
  3. Lay out tortillas: Place one flour tortilla flat on a clean work surface to begin assembling the wrap.
  4. Add chicken: Spread a portion of the BBQ chicken mixture evenly in the center of the tortilla, leaving space on the edges for folding.
  5. Top with coleslaw: Spoon a generous amount of the prepared coleslaw on top of the chicken mixture, distributing it evenly.
  6. Add optional toppings: If using, sprinkle chopped cilantro, layer sliced avocado, and add shredded cheddar cheese over the coleslaw for extra flavor and texture.
  7. Roll the wrap: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll it up starting from the bottom to secure all the fillings inside.
  8. Repeat assembly: Repeat steps 3 through 7 with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients until all wraps are made.
  9. Serve: Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, flavorful combination at its best.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or lettuce leaves.
  • You can make your own coleslaw mix by combining shredded cabbage and carrots if pre-packaged coleslaw is unavailable.
  • To reduce calories, use light mayonnaise or Greek yogurt in the coleslaw.
  • Add a spicy kick by mixing a little hot sauce into the BBQ chicken or coleslaw.
  • These wraps are best enjoyed fresh, but you can prepare the BBQ chicken and coleslaw ahead of time for quick assembly later.
