How to Make BBQ Chicken Coleslaw Wraps (Overview)

Making these wraps is as simple as it sounds! Start by tossing your shredded chicken in that sweet and smoky BBQ sauce. Next, make your coleslaw mix creamy and tangy with some mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle in the cilantro and green onions for extra flavor!

When you’ve got both components ready, just lay down a tortilla, pile in the fillings, and roll it all up! Pro tip: Make sure you roll tightly to prevent any BBQ spillage. 😏

How to Serve BBQ Chicken Coleslaw Wraps

These wraps are super versatile! Serve them with a side of crispy sweet potato fries or a fresh garden salad for a pop of color. Drizzle with extra BBQ sauce or ranch for dipping. The crunch of the coleslaw mixed with the savory chicken and the warmth of the tortilla creates a delightful bite.

Picture this: you take a bite, the BBQ sauce oozes just a bit, and the tangy crunch of coleslaw brightens your day. Yum!

How to Store BBQ Chicken Coleslaw Wraps

Leftover wraps? No problem! You can keep them in the fridge for about 3 days. Just wrap them tightly in foil or plastic wrap and place them in an airtight container. When you’re ready to enjoy, pop them in the microwave for a quick reheat, or enjoy them cold—delicious either way!

Tips to Make BBQ Chicken Coleslaw Wraps

For extra tenderness, pull apart the chicken instead of shredding it.
Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier twist!
Want more flavor? Throw in some jalapeños or hot sauce if you like a kick!

Variation

Feel free to switch things up! Swap the chicken for pulled pork or even a vegan protein option like chickpeas or jackfruit. Get adventurous with the coleslaw by adding in fruits like apples or pineapple for a sweet twist. Who says wraps are boring?
