# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Wrap Filling

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
02 - 1 cup BBQ sauce
03 - 1 teaspoon hot sauce

→ Coleslaw

04 - 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
05 - 1 cup carrots, grated
06 - 1 cup bell peppers, diced
07 - 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
08 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
09 - Salt, to taste
10 - Black pepper, to taste

→ Assembly

11 - 4 large flour tortillas

# How to Make It:

01 - Heat a skillet over medium heat with a splash of oil. Add the shredded chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 3 minutes. Pour in the BBQ sauce and hot sauce, mixing until the chicken is thoroughly coated. Simmer for 2 minutes to meld flavors.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and diced bell peppers. In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Pour dressing over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
03 - Warm each flour tortilla in a dry skillet for 1 minute per side or wrap in a damp towel and microwave for 20 seconds until pliable.
04 - Lay one tortilla flat and spoon a quarter of the BBQ chicken mixture down the center. Top with a generous portion of coleslaw. Fold in the sides and roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom up, securing the filling inside. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
05 - Slice wraps in half if desired and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with extra BBQ sauce or fresh herbs.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - For optimal food safety, use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
02 - Adjust seasoning in the coleslaw dressing to taste, adding extra vinegar or salt as preferred.
03 - Keep components separate if preparing ahead; assemble wraps just before serving to prevent tortillas from becoming soggy.
04 - Lettuce leaves can substitute tortillas for a gluten-free and low-carb alternative.
05 - Warming tortillas prior to assembly prevents cracking and helps achieve a secure roll.
