Quick Notes: Realistically, this is a recipe for shredded buffalo chicken. The rest is just sandwich fixins. Prefer it on bread? Awesome. Don’t like blue cheese? Cool. Wanna layer this baby up like you’re goin HAM at Subway? Knock yourself out. It’s a fuckin sandwich. Make Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Wraps how you like it. As usual, I’m not covering instant pot basics in this recipe.
Ingredients
- 6-8 chicken tenderloins (or 4 breasts)
- 1 package of 8 spinach wraps (you can usually find them by the tortillas at the grocery store)
- 1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot
- 1/2 cup butter
- Lettuce
- Red onion, sliced
- Tomato, sliced
- Ranch or Blue Cheese (depending on preference. I've even used cream cheese a time or two.)
- Blue Cheese crumbles
Instructions
- Add chicken to the instant pot along with 1 cup water or chicken broth.
- Set manual cook for 8 minutes (maybe another minute or two if you're using large breasts). Make sure your instant pot is set to sealing.
- While your chicken is cooking, add the butter to a small saucepan and melt over medium-high heat.
- Once the butter has melted, whisk in the hot sauce. Whisk until fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside. (If you're doing something where a sweet heat would be preferred, add a couple tablespoons of light brown sugar during the cooking process. It's delicious, but not really good for this recipe. Might be good on a sandwich with some slaw or something.)
- When your chicken has finished cooking, manual release. If you plopped these in there frozen, give it a five-minute natural release, first.
- Drain the fluid from the chicken.
- Shred the chicken using your preferred shredding method which should DEFINITELY NOT BE FORKS IN THIS DAY AND AGE (what is this, your first day on the internet?) Toss these bitches in your Kitchen Aid, or put an old-school hand mixer directly into your instant pot and shred it that way. Save your fingers and about 5.5 minutes.
- Pour your buffalo sauce over your chicken and mix with a fork until fully coated.
- Assemble your wraps with your preferred toppings and enjoy!
