Nothing better than a little Hawaiian twist to BBQ chicken, layered inside a tasty wrap! These Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Wraps are EASY, healthy and delicious.
This is one of those meals that was created during the panic mode of needing something to feed my family for dinner that they would like, that I had the stuff for, and that would be super fast to make. (Can’t everyone relate to that?!) I swear, come 4:30pm at our house my kids start to slowly transition from sweet and fun into HANGRY. So if I don’t have some sort of dinner prepped by then, I’m in trouble.
I can always fall back on a tasty “wrap” idea on days like this. You can see all of my wrap recipes here . I have a lot of favorites :-). I get asked all the time what tortillas I use for my wraps. I LIVE for the tortilla land uncooked flour tortillas. I use them for any recipe you see on my site that requires a tortilla!
Let me tell you, these Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Wraps are just as delicious as they look. You can make your bbq sauce from scratch, or use your favorite bottled kind. I prefer Sweet Baby Rays Original BBQ Sauce. You can have these wraps made from fridge to table in 20 minutes or less. Perfect for an easy weeknight meal or even for lunch.

I made these for dinner on Tuesday night and they were fabulous! I forgot the cilantro (that would have made it even better), but I also added fresh red bell pepper and avocado. LOVED all the fresh flavors. Definitely a winner and I’m sure I’ll be making again!
Lauren Allen says
So happy you liked them! And I LOVE the addition of bell pepper and avocado–YUM. Thanks for your nice comment!
Suzanne says
Was wondering the calorie count on this.
Angela says
We just had this for lunch and it was wonderful! This will make it into our regular menu rotation. Thanks for sharing.
Peggy says
Menus rotation, wish I was that organized. It’s usually last minute. So this recipe is on for tonight.
Karen says
Delicious! Tried them for something new and am so glad I did. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
J Smith says
My kids are going through a very picky eating stage at the moment but they love chicken and bbq sauce so I’m definitely going to give this recipe a try. The added bonus is that it contains some salad which they usually won’t touch unless it’s in something like a wrap!
Trish says
Any nutritional information?
Leylah Washington says
This looks good for a snack and for lunch
Caitlin Cochran says
I tried these last night and they are AMAZING. I ate at least 8! Thank you so much!!
laura says
I’m going to try these out tonight, but wondering if you have a good barbecue recipe to go with. I never use pre bought sauces, and am thinking it will even give it an extra goodness. I’m going to take these out on the canoe fishing tonight! Perfect dinner wrap!
Lauren Allen says
Hi Laura,That sounds like so much fun! I don’t have a homemade BBQ Sauce recipe on my site yet, but I have tried this one from Mel’s Kitchen Cafe and really liked it! http://www.melskitchencafe.com/the-best-barbecue-sauce/

We made these tonight and they were delicious and easy. We put them on the George foreman for a couple minutes so they had a nice crisp outer wrap! Thank you, we will definitely make again! 😀
Katie Kelly says
I love the sweet and salty combo. Especially when it is with pineapple! Looks so yummy!
Marcia says
How many servings does this make?
Lauren Allen says
It makes 4 wraps!
Allison says
What brand of tortillas did you use??
Lauren Allen says
I use Tortilla Land uncooked flour tortillas–they are our favorite!

We made them during our recent camping trip to Italy. They are delicious! Thank you 🙂
Lauren Allen says
Camping in Italy?! How fun! Happy you liked them 🙂
Dani says
Great recipe! We didn’t have tortillas on hand but it made a delightful salad!
Christi C says
I just made this for dinner tonight and it was good, everyone enjoyed it. I made a few changes: I grilled the wraps on a griddle pan after lightly spraying them with cooking spray, medium heat about 2-3 minutes per side beginning with the seam side up, until lightly golden brown. I used about half the lettuce called for in the recipe and used a shallot in place of the red onion, because that’s what I had on hand. This was really easy and pretty tasty!
nimolpich says
This is my favorite food. Though i can’t find the original taste in my country. Love it!!!!! Thank for the recipe.
