Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast shredded, rotisserie chicken recommended
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce smoky or honey style preferred
  • 2 cups coleslaw mix pre-packaged or homemade
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise full-fat recommended
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas burrito size
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro optional
  • 1 ripe avocado sliced, optional
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese optional

Equipment

  • 2 Medium Mixing Bowls
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife

Method
 

  1. Place shredded chicken in a medium bowl. Add BBQ sauce and toss until every piece is fully coated. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, and apple cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until fully combined and creamy.
  3. Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a portion of BBQ chicken across the center leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
  4. Spoon a generous layer of coleslaw on top of the chicken. Add cilantro, avocado, and cheddar if using.
  5. Fold in both sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately for best texture.

Notes

Keep chicken and slaw separate until ready to assemble to prevent soggy tortillas. Store components in the fridge for up to 3 days. Assembled wraps are best eaten within 24 hours.
