BBQ Pulled Chicken Wrap
Thanks to meal-prepped ingredients this BBQ Pulled Chicken Wrap comes together in 5 minutes flat. Perfect as a fast lunch, easy dinner, or summer picnic.
I often make BBQ pulled chicken as part of my weekly meal prep routine and these lunch wraps are another delicious way to turn it into quick and easy meal.
Just like my chicken salad wraps, you can make this tasty lunch in 5 minutes using only a few staple ingredients.
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
- Wraps – Large soft flour tortillas work best (8 inches).
- Chicken – BBQ pulled chicken – fully heated through. Alternatively, you can simply combine cooked shredded chicken with BBQ sauce. Here are a few suitable chicken recipes: braised chicken thighs, parmesan chicken schnitzel, or smoked chicken salad.
- Veggies – A lettuce mix and baby spinach give the wrap extra texture and nutrients for a complete meal. Sliced bell peppers, cucumber, or a coleslaw mix can add extra crunch and color as well. Red sauerkraut, dill pickles, or pickled red onions would make tasty additions too.
- Sauces: I love adding some heat to the wrap with some Sriracha sauce. But any hot sauce will do. I use Kewpie mayo but again, any mayonnaise, or my homemade tzatziki would make a delicious base.

Salad leaves and veggies are next.
Add heated pulled chicken and extra sauce.
Wrap it up.
Meal prep: Just like the BBQ pulled chicken, meal prep the salad ingredients as well and store them in containers in the fridge. That way lunch wraps come together even faster!
Low carb: Use low-carb tortillas or a large salad leaf to make low-carb and keto-friendly chicken wraps.
Add cheese: When heating the pulled chicken, add some grated cheese on top or throughout.

Tips
- Soften tortillas: Depending on the type of tortilla you’re using you might need to heat them slightly if they are too firm. Warm the tortilla for 20-30 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel in the microwave to make them more pliable and prevent tearing.
- Balance filling: Add the filling in the middle of the tortilla but don’t overfill to ensure a tight roll that stays together.
