Whip up these incredibly easy and flavorful BBQ Chicken Coleslaw Wraps for a quick weeknight dinner or a delightful lunch. They combine tender, saucy BBQ chicken with crunchy, tangy coleslaw in a perfect portable package.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (from 1 small rotisserie chicken)
- ¾ cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
- 4 cups coleslaw mix (pre-shredded cabbage and carrots)
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or to taste)
- 4–6 large soft tortillas or large lettuce leaves
- Optional: Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with the BBQ sauce. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated and saucy.
- Make the Coleslaw Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
- Dress the Coleslaw: In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix with the prepared dressing. Toss gently until the vegetables are just coated. Be careful not to overmix.
- Assemble the Wraps: Warm your tortillas briefly (15-20 seconds in the microwave or a dry skillet) to make them more pliable. Lay out each tortilla. Spoon a generous amount of BBQ chicken down the center, followed by a scoop of the coleslaw.
- Fold and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. If using lettuce leaves, simply cup the filling in the center. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
