Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup buffalo sauce (adjust based on your spice preference)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 head of romaine or butter lettuce, leaves gently separated

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

1/2 cup diced celery

1/2 cup diced carrots

1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced

Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. While the oil heats up, season the chicken breasts generously with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and has an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, remove from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes.

    Shred the Chicken: After the chicken has cooled enough to handle, use two forks to shred it into bite-sized pieces or chop it into cubes for a chunkier texture.

      Combine with Buffalo Sauce: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the buffalo sauce. Toss gently until the chicken is thoroughly coated. Feel free to adjust the amount of buffalo sauce according to your taste preference for spice.

        Prepare the Lettuce Wraps: Rinse and pat dry the lettuce leaves. Choose the largest leaves, as they will serve as your wraps.

          Assemble the Wraps: Take a lettuce leaf and fill it generously with the buffalo chicken mixture. Top each wrap with diced celery, diced carrots, optional crumbled blue cheese, and several slices of fresh avocado.

            Garnish and Serve: Finish by sprinkling the assembled wraps with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for an added burst of flavor. Continue this process until all of the chicken is used up.

              Enjoy: These wraps are versatile and can be served as a delicious appetizer or a satisfying main dish. They are perfect for game day, festive parties, or a quick weeknight dinner!
