Crispy Chicken Ranch Wrap

This crispy chicken ranch wrap combines juicy fried chicken, creamy ranch dressing, and fresh veggies all rolled into a warm tortilla. It’s crunchy, creamy, and perfect for quick lunches or a weeknight dinner treat.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 wraps

Ingredients

  • Boneless chicken thighs or breasts

  • All-purpose flour

  • Buttermilk or milk with vinegar

  • Eggs

  • Breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes

  • Garlic powder

  • Paprika

  • Onion powder

  • Salt

  • Pepper

  • Large flour tortillas

  • Shredded lettuce

  • Sliced tomatoes

  • Shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

  • Ranch dressing (homemade or store-bought)

  • Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Slice into thin strips or pound flat. Set up three bowls: one with seasoned flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs or cornflakes.

  2. Coat the chicken: Dredge in flour, dip in egg wash, then coat with breadcrumbs. Rest for 10–15 minutes.

  3. Cook the chicken: Fry in oil (deep-fry, pan-fry, or air-fry) until golden and cooked through. Drain on a wire rack.

  4. Warm the tortilla: Heat in a pan or microwave until soft and pliable.

  5. Assemble the wrap: Spread ranch dressing down the center, add lettuce, tomato, cheese, and hot chicken. Drizzle extra ranch on top.

  6. Wrap it up: Fold in sides, roll tightly, and slice in half. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Double coat the chicken for extra crunch.

  • Homemade ranch adds a fresh, tangy flavor boost.

  • To make ahead, store ingredients separately and assemble when ready.

  • For a spicy kick, mix hot sauce into the ranch or use pepper jack cheese.
