Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless

1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite variety)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup fresh coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)

1/2 cup ranch dressing (optional)

Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the chicken breasts.

    Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. During the last few minutes of grilling, baste the chicken with BBQ sauce.

      Slice the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes. Then slice the chicken into thin strips.

        Assemble the Wraps: Warm the flour tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Lay a tortilla flat, add a few strips of grilled chicken, a generous drizzle of BBQ sauce, some shredded cheddar cheese, and a handful of coleslaw mix. Drizzle ranch dressing if desired.

          Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla in and then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

            Grill the Wraps (optional): Place the wrapped tortillas back on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side, just to crisp them up and melt the cheese inside.

              Serve and Enjoy: Remove the wraps from the grill, slice them in half, and garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley. Serve with extra BBQ sauce and ranch on the side for dipping.
