Ingredients
  

For The Chicken

  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into cutlets
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

For The Breading

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • Olive oil cooking spray

Wrap Filling

  • 4 large burrito-size flour tortillas
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • ½ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • Dill pickle slices optional

Creamy Sauce

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the Chicken:
  • In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken and marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Prepare the Breading:
  • Place the flour in one shallow bowl, the beaten eggs in another, and the panko breadcrumbs in a third.
  • Bread the Chicken:
  • Remove each chicken cutlet from the buttermilk. Dredge in flour, dip into the eggs, then coat thoroughly with the panko breadcrumbs. Press gently so the breadcrumbs adhere well.
  • Air Fry:
  • Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.
  • Lightly spray both sides of the breaded chicken with olive oil cooking spray.
  • Arrange in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  • Cook for 12–14 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Make the Sauce:
  • Whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Assemble:
  • Warm the tortillas for about 20 seconds.
  • Spread the sauce over each tortilla.
  • Top with:
  • Lettuce
  • Tomatoes
  • Red onion
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Crispy sliced chicken
  • Extra sauce if desired
  • Fold in both sides and roll tightly.
  • Toast (Optional)
  • Place the wrap seam-side down in a dry skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until lightly golden.
  • Slice in half and serve immediately.
