Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Wire Rack
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Tongs

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • garlic powder to taste
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs slightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup seasoned fine breadcrumbs
  • olive oil spray or other nonstick spray (coconut or avocado oil spray)
  • 3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey use hot honey if desired
  • 4 large burrito-size tortillas warmed
  • romaine lettuce or spring greens chopped
  • blue cheese crumbled, about 1–2 tablespoons per wrap
  • ranch dressing for drizzling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with a wire rack and spray the rack lightly with nonstick spray.
  • Set up three shallow bowls: one with the flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with the combined panko and seasoned fine breadcrumbs.
  • Season the chicken tenders all over with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Dredge each tender in flour, shake off excess, dip into the beaten eggs, then press into the breadcrumb mixture to fully coat; transfer to the prepared wire rack.
  • Bake the breaded chicken on the rack at 425°F for 12 minutes, flip each piece, then bake 12–15 minutes more until golden and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).
  • While chicken bakes, combine the buffalo wing sauce, butter, and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat; warm until the butter melts and whisk until smooth.
  • When the chicken is done, remove from oven and brush each piece all over with the hot-honey buffalo sauce.
  • Warm the tortillas briefly in the microwave or oven. Place a handful of chopped lettuce in the center of each tortilla, top with 1–2 pieces of sauced chicken, sprinkle with crumbled blue cheese, and drizzle with ranch dressing.
  • Fold the top and bottom of the tortilla over the filling and roll the sides tightly to form a wrap. Serve immediately with extra sauce or sides if desired.

Notes

  • Use hot honey for extra spice if preferred.
  • Spraying the rack helps the breading adhere and crisp.
  • Check chicken internal temperature to ensure doneness.
  • Warm tortillas briefly to make wrapping easier.
