Equipment

1 Bowl
1 Spatula

Ingredients

½ Cup Celery diced
¼ Cup Dressing ranch or blue cheese
⅓ Cup Buffalo Wing Sauce
1 Tablespoon Butter melted (optional)
2 Cups Cooked Chicken shredded
8 Pieces Lettuce Boats romaine or butter

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Rinse and pat the lettuce leaves dry, then lay them flat. Chop the celery for topping and set aside.
Mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce in a bowl, adding melted butter if desired, until fully coated.
Spoon the buffalo chicken into the center of each lettuce leaf, keeping the filling neatly in the middle.
Top with chopped celery and a drizzle of ranch or blue cheese, then fold the lettuce around the filling and serve immediately.

Notes

Cook the chicken with aromatics. Garlic, onion, and a splash of soy sauce add a big burst of flavor without much effort.
Add a sauce with a kick. A drizzle of spicy mayo or chili sauce brings the wraps to life and makes them extra tasty.
Prep fillings ahead. You can chop the veggies and cook the chicken earlier in the day so assembling the wraps later is quick and easy.
