Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice boneless, skinless chicken breasts into thin strips and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Create a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for breadcrumbs. Dredge chicken strips in flour, dip in egg, and coat in breadcrumbs.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a large frying pan to 350°F. Fry chicken strips for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Remove cooked chicken with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Let rest for a couple of minutes.
  5. Warm the large tortillas in a pan or microwave for 15-20 seconds.
  6. Lay a warm tortilla flat, add shredded lettuce and sliced tomato, place crispy chicken on top, and drizzle with mayonnaise or ranch. Sprinkle cheddar cheese.
  7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up, then slice in half diagonally and serve while warm.

Notes

Ensure chicken strips are uniform in thickness for even cooking. Always confirm oil temperature before frying to avoid sogginess. Warm tortillas help in wrapping tightly.
