Description
A quick and easy recipe for crunchy, creamy chicken wraps with a homemade ranch sauce, perfect for busy weeknights and family-friendly meals.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound (450g) chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 1 cup (100g) panko breadcrumbs
- 1 packet or 2 tablespoons homemade ranch seasoning mix
- ½ cup (60g) all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 6 large (8-inch / 20cm) flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
- 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
- 1 cup (100g) shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- ½ cup (120ml) mayonnaise
- ¼ cup (60ml) sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- ¼ cup (60ml) olive oil or vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with ranch seasoning.
- Dip each chicken slice first in the flour, shaking off excess, then into the beaten eggs, and finally dredge thoroughly in the ranch-seasoned panko. Press breadcrumbs gently to stick well. Lay coated chicken on a plate.
- Heat ¼ cup oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken slices in a single layer for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F/74°C). Drain on paper towels.
- Whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, dried dill, salt, and pepper to make ranch sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Lay out a tortilla, spread a generous spoonful of ranch sauce, then layer with shredded romaine, tomato slices, crispy chicken pieces, and cheddar cheese. Roll tightly, folding in edges. Repeat for all wraps and serve immediately or wrap tightly for later.
Notes
Use thin chicken slices for faster cooking and better crispiness. Maintain medium heat to avoid burning or greasy chicken. Press breadcrumbs firmly for a crunchy crust. Ranch sauce can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for a couple of days. Air fryer can be used as a healthier alternative to frying.
