All the flavors you love from buffalo wings without all the added fat. A delicious, low-carb lettuce wrap topped with shredded carrots, celery and blue cheese dressing. I topped it with skinny blue cheese dressing (not included in n.i.) or you can top it with my skinny ranch.

If you’re a buffalo chicken fan, you may also like Buffalo Chicken Meatballs, Skinny Buffalo Chicken Dip or Skinny Baked Buffalo Wings.

Making shredded buffalo chicken in the slow cooker is super easy, anyone can do this and you can use the chicken for everything from wraps and salads, to pizza toppings, sandwiches and more! I’ve now updated this with instructions for the Instant Pot as well!

How To Make Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Lettuce wraps are low-carb, keto, gluten-free and low calorie, and don’t interfere with the flavors of the filling. A few tips when making lettuce wraps:

Look for lettuce leaves that are large enough to hold the filling. I like to use iceberg lettuce for larger cups. Romaine lettuce and baby romaine are also great.

The leaves of butter or boston lettuce are smaller, but also wonderful.

If you prefer, you can turn this into a big chopped salad by simply serving this over a bowl over chopped lettuce.

And since so many are asking, although I have and love my Instant Pot, I still love my slow cooker! I have the 6 Quart Hamilton Beach Set ‘n Forget Programmable Slow Cooker (affil link). I love it because you can adjust the time you want it to cook, and it automatically turns to warm when it’s done. It also has a probe for meat that automatically shuts off when done. I hated my old crock pot, it burnt everything and my food had a weird taste. This slow cooker is so great, I actually own several!
