Notes

  • Rotisserie chicken works great for quick preparation.
  • Adjust the spice level by using mild or extra hot buffalo sauce.
  • Blue cheese dressing or crumbles add classic buffalo flavor.
  • Use spinach tortillas for extra color and flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Warm briefly in the oven at 300°F for about 5 minutes if desired.
  • Freezing is not recommended because tortillas may become soggy.
