These delicious bang bang chicken burritos are the perfect blend of crispy, creamy, and spicy flavors wrapped in a soft flour tortilla. They are quick to prepare and ideal for a satisfying lunch or dinner. The burritos are filled with crunchy breaded chicken, fresh coleslaw mix, and a simple yet bold three-ingredient bang bang sauce that brings heat and tang in every bite. Lightly toasted in a skillet, the outside turns golden and crisp while the inside stays juicy and flavorful.
To make this recipe, start by stirring mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha together to create the signature bang bang sauce. Cook frozen crispy chicken strips as directed on the package, preferably in an air fryer for extra crunch, then chop them into smaller pieces. Coat the chicken evenly in the prepared sauce for a kick of flavor throughout.
Divide the chicken among four large flour tortillas, keeping the filling slightly below the center. Add a generous layer of coleslaw mix to give the burritos texture and freshness. Fold in the sides and roll tightly from the bottom to secure the filling.
In a large nonstick skillet, melt a little butter over medium-high heat. Place the rolled burritos seam-side down and cook until the tortilla becomes crisp and golden, which usually takes around two minutes per side. This quick pan-fry step makes the burritos warm, crunchy, and ready to enjoy in just 30 minutes from start to finish.
Whether served on their own or with extra dipping sauce, these bang bang burritos are a fast and flavorful meal the whole family will love.
