  • Prepare the Breading Station: You’ll need three bowls:
    1 bowl for flour
    1 bowl for egg wash (whisk eggs + water)
    1 bowl for seasoned breadcrumbs
    Dredge each strip: See notes below.
    Dredge each strip in flour, then the egg mixture, followed by the breadcrumbs (press firmly so it sticks), then set aside on a rack or tray.

  • Deep Fry the Chicken: Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C).
    Fry in batches for about 4–6 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
    Remove and drain on paper towels or a rack.
    Assemble the Wrap: Warm your tortilla slightly. Layer:
    Lettuce, shredded cheese, crispy Gochujang chicken strips, and drizzle of your favorite sauce.
    Wrap tightly, slice in half, and serve immediately.

Notes

I recommend you double dip the chicken strips into the flour and egg wash before dipping them into the breadcrumbs. This will allow the breading to stick better to the chicken.
