Crispy Air Fryer Chicken & Mozzarella Wraps

Crispy Air Fryer Chicken & Mozzarella Wraps made approachable with clear cues, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large tortillas
  • Cooking oil spray

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Prepare the breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder and paprika.
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge each piece in flour, dip in the egg, and coat with the panko mixture.
  • Place the coated chicken breasts in the air fryer basket in a single layer to allow proper air circulation.
  • Spray the chicken lightly with cooking oil to promote browning and crispiness.
  • Cook the chicken in the air fryer for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove the cooked chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • While the chicken rests, warm the tortillas slightly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
  • Assemble the wraps by layering sliced chicken, shredded mozzarella, and any desired toppings inside each tortilla.
  • Roll the tortillas tightly around the fillings, then place seam-side down in the air fryer basket.
  • Air fry the wraps for 5-7 minutes at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  • Remove the wraps from the air fryer, let cool slightly, then slice in half and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
