WHAT IS BUFFALO SAUCE?
Hot sauce, butter, vinegar, and seasonings are usually combined to create the fiery and tangy buffalo sauce. It got its name from its origin at Buffalo, New York, and is most frequently correlated with chicken wings prepared in the Buffalo style.
In order to add more flavor and heat, hot sauce, melted butter, and occasionally other ingredients like cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, or garlic powder are mixed together in the classic Buffalo sauce recipe.
Buffalo sauce is a multipurpose sauce that may be used in several different dishes, especially chicken wings, as a glaze, dipping sauce, or marinade.

HOW TO MAKE SUPER EASY BUFFALO CHICKEN WRAPS
Now that you have gathered all of your ingredients, it is time to make this yummy recipe. Follow the instructions below for the best results!
STEP ONE: PREPARE CHICKEN BREASTS
Grab your electric pressure cooker or instant pot then put in your chicken. Add in the chicken broth, ranch seasoning, and some buffalo sauce.
STEP TWO: COOK BUFFALO CHICKEN MIXTURE
Once that is done, go ahead and start the cooker. Select manual or pressure cooker. Set timer to 12 minutes and be sure that lid is shut tight. When the timer ends, you can just allow the pressure to release normally. Wait for about 5 minutes before a quick release for the remaining pressure inside the pot.
STEP THREE: SHRED THE JUICY BUFFALO CHICKEN
After that, you are going to drain the water from the pot. Grab two forks and start shredding. You can also use an electric mixer if that is easier for you. Pour in the rest of the buffalo sauce over the shredded chicken.
STEP FOUR: MAKE THE WRAP
Get your soft flour tortilla and add in your favorite things. Start off with the crunchy vegetables. Lay a bed of lettuce, tomatoes, and celery at the center of each tortilla. Next up is the spicy buffalo chicken that was cooked earlier. To finish it off, top with cheddar cheese or whichever you prefer then drizzle with ranch dressing.
STEP FIVE: SERVE DELICIOUS BUFFALO CHICKEN WRAPS
Grab the sides of the tortilla and roll to secure the filling ingredients. Using a plastic wrap would be a great way to hold it in place. Slice the buffalo ranch chicken wraps in half diagonally, serve and enjoy!
