Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (about 10.5 oz)
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon ranch dressing (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch; use gluten-free if needed)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 4 oz)
  • Cooking spray or a little oil
  • Thinly sliced green onions (optional)
  • Chopped celery (optional)
  • Blue cheese crumbles (optional)
  • Extra buffalo sauce or ranch for dipping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place shredded chicken in a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Add buffalo sauce, cream cheese, ranch dressing (if using), garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Mix well until thoroughly combined and creamy. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Lay out tortillas on a clean surface. Divide chicken mixture evenly among tortillas, spreading in a line down the center.
  5. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture.
  6. Add optional toppings (green onions, celery, blue cheese) if desired.
  7. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly from the bottom.
  8. Preheat air fryer to 380°F for 2 minutes (if required).
  9. Lightly spray each wrap with cooking spray or brush with oil on all sides.
  10. Place wraps seam-side down in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each. Work in batches if needed.
  11. Cook for 6 minutes, flip wraps, then cook another 4-6 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  12. Remove wraps and let cool for 1-2 minutes.
  13. Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve with extra buffalo sauce, ranch, or blue cheese dip.

Notes

Don’t overfill wraps to prevent bursting. Seal tightly and place seam-side down. Use fresh tortillas for best results. For gluten-free or dairy-free, substitute tortillas and cheese as needed. Filling can be made ahead and chilled. To bake instead of air fry, use a 425°F oven for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway.
