Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless chicken breast
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 4 large tortilla wraps
- 1 cup lettuce
- 1 large tomato
- 0.5 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
Instructions
Begin by cutting each chicken breast into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
Place the chicken strips into a bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
After the chicken has marinated, dredge each strip in the flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place the coated chicken strips into the hot oil, frying them for about 6-8 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken strips from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
While the chicken is draining, warm the tortilla wraps in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble the wraps, lay each tortilla flat and place a handful of lettuce in the center, followed by slices of tomato.
Add the fried chicken strips on top of the vegetables, then drizzle with ranch dressing.
Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form the wrap.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
