Instructions
-
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.
-
Coat the chicken: Dredge in flour, dip in egg wash, then coat with breadcrumbs. Rest for 10–15 minutes.
-
Cook the chicken: Fry in oil (deep-fry, pan-fry, or air-fry) until golden and cooked through. Drain on a wire rack.
-
Warm the tortilla: Heat in a pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
-
Assemble the wrap: Spread ranch dressing down the center, add lettuce, tomato, cheese, and hot chicken. Drizzle extra ranch on top.
-
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.
