Ingredients
  

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup barbecue sauce (your favorite brand or homemade)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for added heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large flour tortillas (or your preferred wrap)

1 cup coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)

½ cup ranch dressing or vinaigrette of choice

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish

Sliced pickles for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken. Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated.

    Slow Cook: Secure the lid on the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The chicken is ready when it is fork-tender and easily shreds apart.

      Shred the Chicken: Carefully remove the cooked chicken from the slow cooker and place it on a cutting board. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Return the shredded chicken back to the slow cooker and stir it into the remaining barbecue sauce. Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 30 minutes on low, so that the chicken can soak up the flavorful sauce.

        Prepare the Wraps: In a mixing bowl, combine the coleslaw mix with your choice of ranch dressing or vinaigrette. Toss well until the coleslaw is evenly coated, then set aside to let the flavors meld.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Place a generous scoop of the smoky pulled BBQ chicken in the center, then top with a handful of the creamy coleslaw mixture. To wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom, enclosing the delicious filling.

            Serve: Using a sharp knife, cut the wraps in half at an angle for an attractive presentation. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley. For an extra crunch, serve with sliced pickles on the side.

              Enjoy: Indulge in these hearty and satisfying pulled BBQ chicken wraps. They are ideal for lunch, dinner, or any casual gathering with friends and family!
