Zutaten

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs

• 6 strips of bacon
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup ranch dressing

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Season evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to infuse flavor into the meat.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Stations: Place the all-purpose flour in a shallow dish, pour buttermilk into a second dish, and place the panko breadcrumbs in a third dish. This setup will help you coat the chicken strips effectively for a crispy crust.

3. 3

   Bread the Chicken: Dip each chicken strip first into the flour, ensuring full coverage. Then dip into the buttermilk to moisten, and finally coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs for crunch.

4. 4

   Fry the Chicken: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken strips for 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

5. 5

   Cook the Bacon: While frying the chicken, cook the bacon strips in a separate pan over medium heat until they are crispy. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, then crumble into bite-sized pieces.

6. 6

   Prepare the Tortillas: Lay each large flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about one tablespoon of ranch dressing evenly over each tortilla as a flavorful base.

7. 7

   Assemble the Wraps: In the center of each tortilla, layer shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, crispy fried chicken strips, and crumbled bacon to create a well-balanced filling.

8. 8

   Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly from one end to the other ensuring all fillings are enclosed securely.

9. 9

   Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling and serve immediately while warm and crispy.
