Instructions
Cook the chicken:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the oil and distribute it around the pan. Add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until they're soft, golden and translucent.
- Add chicken pieces and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for another 5 to 7 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the internal temperature reads 165F.
- Add the Buffalo sauce and stir to coat the chicken. Reduce heat to low, and simmer the sauce for 3 more minutes, stirring from time to time.
Cup of Yum
Assemble the wraps:
- Layer two lettuce leaves on top of each other to build a base for each lettuce wrap. Scoop some of the Buffalo chicken mixture on top of the lettuce, add blue cheese crumbles and avocado slices on top, and drizzle with Ranch.
