What I love about these 2 Minute Buffalo Chicken Nuggets Wrap
- comes together in two minutes
- the ingredients are probably already in your kitchen
- gives you the taste of a restaurant style sandwich at home
- a microwave meal in case you don’t have any other working appliance
I don’t always make meals you can make in the microwave but it is definitely one of my go to lunch recipes for something quick and easy. So even if you are a college student with only a microwave, this may be a great option!
What you need for this Chicken Nugget Wrap
Chicken Nuggets– yep the frozen kind, and whatever you have works (round, Dino shaped, Minion)
Buffalo Wing Sauce– I always have a bottle of this is my refrigerator. But if you don’t you can always whip up some with some Red Hot and butter.
Tortilla– This wraps it all up into an easy handheld sandwich.
Shredded Cheddar Cheese– I like cheese in my wrap but you can skip if you want.
Ranch– Of course a little ranch ties it all together balancing the heat of the buffalo sauce.
That’s it! You can absolutely get fancier and add some chopped tomatoes or shredded lettuce if you have it. But I am pretty simple so that is how I like it!
How to make this Crispy Chicken Wraps Recipe
First start by warming up the chicken nuggets in your microwave or in your method of choice. If you want them crispier go ahead and pop them in your Air Fryer or oven. But like I said, I like these quick.
So I lay a few on a paper towel sheets to soak up extra moisture and microwave for 30 seconds, give them a flip for another 30 seconds.
Then chop them up or leave them whole and toss them with some buffalo sauce or just drizzle the sauce over the chicken.
Lay down your tortilla and add the buffalo chicken nuggets, cheese, and ranch. Roll it up and enjoy! If you want the tortilla warmed pop it back in the microwave for a few seconds.
Other recipes with chicken nuggets
Not a fan of buffalo sauce? You could skip the sauce and add some bacon bits and ranch for another wrap idea. Or easily swap the sauce for some BBQ sauce, honey mustard, or whatever else you like.
Additions & Substitutions:
- Prefer blue cheese dressing? Go for it!
- Jazz it up with some lettuce or tomatoes for some vegetables.
- Pepper jack cheese would be yummy, too.
- You could easily use chicken tenders, too.
