Ingredients

Chicken tenders

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 lb chicken tenders
  • 1 cup flour `
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cup panko breadcrumbs

To serve

  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 1/2 head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese or feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 carrot grated or cut into matchsticks
  • 1 stalk celery thinly sliced
  • 1/2 small red onion thinly sliced
  • Carrots, celery & ranch dip as optional sides

Less spicy buffalo sauce - can also just use buffalo sauce alone

  • 3/4 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/4 cup bbq sauce
  • 1 tbsp butter

Optional homemade ranch

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp dehydrated onion flakes
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 F. Spray a wire rack placed overtop of a parchment-lined baking sheet with cooking spray. Add flour to a bowl, crack and whisk 2 eggs in another bowl and add panko to another bowl.
  • Dip chicken tenders in flour, then coat in egg, then finish in panko (it's easiest to use a fork to dunk tenders). Add breaded tenders to the greased wire rack, spray tenders with cooking spray and season with salt, then bake for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a covered large bowl by microwaving for 30 seconds, then mix in buffalo sauce and bbq sauce. Microwave, covered, another 30 seconds. Skip this step and just microwave the buffalo sauce for 1 min if you're ok with the spice level.
  • Make ranch dressing from scratch if desired. Skip this step if you'd like to use store bought to save time.
  • When chicken tenders come out of oven, toss in your buffalo sauce. Now you can assemble your wraps.
  • Add romaine lettuce, 2 buffalo chicken tenders, blue cheese, a bit of carrot, celery and red onion to each wrap, being careful not to overfill them. Tuck two sides in, pushing contents towards you in the wrap and then start rolling away from you.
  • Serve with carrots, celery and dip of your choice - wraps will keep in fridge up to 2 days. I suggest storing all ingredients separately then assembling the day of to avoid sogginess.

Notes

You could also make the chicken in the crockpot.
Fry them in a skillet for 1-2 mins per side if you want them toasted.
Use the leftovers to make loaded fries, burrito bowls or salad.
Store the chicken and toppings separately for 5 days, then assemble before serving. Eat them cold or reheat the tenders in the oven.
