Description
Make quick and flavorful crispy buffalo chicken wraps featuring a tangy sauce and cool ranch dressing, perfect for lunch or a fast dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced celery
Instructions
- Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Place the beaten egg in a second dish and the panko breadcrumbs in a third dish.
- Dredge the cooked chicken pieces first in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the breaded chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buffalo wing sauce and melted butter. Toss the crispy chicken pieces in the sauce until fully coated.
- In another small bowl, mix the ranch dressing with one tablespoon of water to thin slightly, if desired.
- Warm the tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
- To assemble, layer lettuce, celery, sauced crispy chicken, and a drizzle of ranch dressing down the center of each tortilla.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly to create a wrap. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a lower-carb option, substitute large butter lettuce leaves for the flour tortillas.
- You can prepare the sauced chicken ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to two days. Add it to the wraps just before serving.
- If you prefer grilled chicken instead of crispy, skip the breading and frying steps, and toss the cooked grilled chicken directly in the buffalo sauce.
