Slice the chicken breast into strips. Place the strips in a bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In another bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove the chicken strips from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and dredge them in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by blending mayonnaise, lemon juice, and hot sauce.
To assemble the wraps, lay a tortilla flat and spread a tablespoon of the sauce over it.
Place a few pieces of fried chicken strips in the center, followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and avocado slices.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve immediately.
