Steps

1

Chicken and Filling

Cut the chicken breast fillet into small cubes, about 1 cm (0.4 inch). In a pan, sauté the chicken cubes in a little oil over medium heat until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Remove from heat and let cool. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

2

Assemble Wraps

Cut the tortillas in half. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese filling on each half tortilla, then place a line of cooked chicken cubes on top. Roll them up tightly like small crepes, then cut into 2-3 equal pieces to create bite-sized portions.

3

Breading

Prepare three deep plates: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs. Dredge each wrap bite first in flour, then in egg, and finally coat thoroughly in panko breadcrumbs, ensuring it's fully covered.

4

Frying

Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a deep pan or pot over medium-high heat (approx. 170-180°C / 340-350°F). Fry the breaded bites in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.

Extra Tips

For even crispier bites, try air frying them at 180°C (350°F) for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as garlic yogurt or sweet chili sauce.

You can prepare the chicken in advance to assemble the bites even quicker.
