Ingredients
  

1 lb chicken tenders

1 cup buttermilk

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Vegetable oil (for frying)

½ cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup diced tomatoes

½ cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

Ranch or blue cheese dressing (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, soak the chicken tenders in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes to tenderize and add flavor. This step is crucial for juiciness.

    Prepare the Breading: In a shallow dish, mix the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs.

      Coat the Chicken: Remove each chicken tender from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge in the flour mixture, dip back into the buttermilk, then coat thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs. Repeat for all tenders.

        Fry the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat about ½ inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken tenders, cooking in batches if necessary. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

          Toss in Buffalo Sauce: In a large bowl, add the crispy chicken tenders and drizzle with buffalo sauce. Toss until evenly coated. Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce to your spice preference.

            Assemble the Wraps: Lay out a flour tortilla. Place a handful of shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and buffalo chicken in the center. If you’re using blue cheese, sprinkle some on top.

              Wrap It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top to encase the filling inside.

                Serve: Slice the wraps in half and drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious crispy buffalo chicken wraps!
