These homemade buffalo chicken wraps are excellent. Honey and lime juice help tone down the hot wing sauce for a refreshing zip. Theyâre perfect for lunch or a light summer meal with a tall glass of ice-cold lemonade. âPriscilla Gilbert, Indian Harbour Beach, Florida Ingredients:
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons milk |
4-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1/4 cup lime juice |
