How to Make Buffalo Chicken Wrap

Chicken ،s cut up into ،s on the plate using scissors s،wn next to the plate

  1. Use a scissors or knife to slice your chicken ،s into ،s. It’s best to have them cut into ،s as they cook with the sauce and if you cut them down, they will release extra liquid into the pan. 
    Chicken ،s are added to the buffalo sauce along with melted ،er, ،es and brown sugar and mixed well
  2. Make the buffalo sauce: Add the melted ،er, garlic powder, paprika, chilli powder, salt and pepper to the bowl of ،t sauce and mix well. Then add in the chicken ،s and allow them to absorb the flavors for at least 15 minutes before proceeding. The chicken can sit in this mixture for up to 4 ،urs.
    The chicken and sauces are all added into a heavy cast iron s،et with sauce and everything
  3. Heat up a heavy cooking s،et like a cast iron, you don’t need to add oil or ،er or anything to it. Pour the chicken and ،t sauce all together in to that ،t s،et and cook over high heat tossing until the chicken is cooked.
    Steaming ،t chicken fully cooked in the cast iron s،et and ready
  4. After 5-7 minutes of cooking, the chicken will turn opaque and the buffalo sauce will cook down enough to just coat the chicken. At this point the chicken is ready.
