Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs chicken tenders
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1.5 cups panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup parmesan finely grated, plus more for serving
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp anchovy paste
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 6 cups romaine lettuce chopped
  • 4 large flour tortillas burrito size
  • salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. **Bread.** Set up three bowls: flour, beaten egg, panko mixed with parmesan and garlic powder. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  2. **Coat.** Dip each tender into flour, egg, then panko mix. Press to adhere.
  3. **Fry.** Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Fry tenders 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden. Drain on paper towels.
  4. **Dressing.** Whisk mayo, lemon juice, anchovy paste, garlic, dijon, and parmesan with a splash of water until creamy.
  5. **Toss.** Combine romaine and dressing in a bowl. Slice chicken into strips.
  6. **Wrap.** Warm tortillas. Pile romaine, chicken strips, and extra parmesan down the middle. Fold sides in, then roll tightly. Slice and serve.

Notes

Warm tortillas for 10 seconds in the microwave before rolling. Cold tortillas crack. Use panko bread crumbs for maximum crunch. Regular bread crumbs turn pasty. Store the chicken and wrap components separately. Assembled wraps get soggy.
