Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil, for frying (or cooking spray for air frying)
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup sliced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced pickles
  • For the Sauce:
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken coating: In one shallow dish, mix the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. In a second dish, place the beaten eggs. In a third dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
  2. Dredge each chicken strip first in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip it into the egg, letting excess drip off. Finally, press the strip firmly into the panko breadcrumbs to coat completely.
  3. Cook the chicken: Heat about 1 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat (about 350°F). Fry the chicken strips in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F). Alternatively, air fry at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway. Drain cooked chicken on a wire rack or paper towels.
  4. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and chopped parsley. Mix well until smooth.
  5. Warm the tortillas: Heat the flour tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  6. Assemble the wraps: Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spread a generous amount of garlic yogurt sauce down the center. Layer with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and then top with the crispy chicken strips.
  7. Fold the wrap tightly and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness when frying, ensure your oil temperature is correct before adding the chicken.
  • You can prepare the garlic yogurt sauce up to one day ahead and store it in the refrigerator.
  • If you prefer an oven-baked option, bake the coated chicken on a lightly oiled baking sheet at 425°F for 18-20 minutes.
