Cook/Assemble
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, honey, BBQ sauce, and cayenne pepper. Stir well until the chicken is fully coated.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon on a generous amount of the honey BBQ chicken mixture, leaving space at the edges.
- Add the shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll from the bottom up to encase the filling snugly.
Serve
- In the skillet, place the wrap seam-side down for about 2–3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip carefully and toast the other side for another 2–3 minutes.
- Once both sides are toasted, remove from heat and let cool for a minute.
- Slice in half diagonally and serve warm with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
Notes
For added sweetness, try using a honey BBQ sauce blend. Marinate the chicken in the BBQ sauce for at least 30 minutes before shredding for enhanced flavor. Wrap tightly in foil for lunches or picnics to keep fresh.
