Crispy Twisters

This is not so much a recipe as it is an idea. It's kind of interesting that we were introduced to KFC Twisters while in Indonesia . . . maybe because we rarely pick up KFC while at home, but when you are in a foreign land, you are very happy to get something that tastes like home.

I get my breaded chicken strips (crispy tenders) at Neufeld Farms which is a local family run business where you can get many ready to go meal ideas. Having a bag of these in the freezer comes in very handy. Bake chicken of your choice according to instructions.

Heat soft tortillas on medium heat in Teflon pan (no oil), about a minute on each side or until golden spots appear.

Wash loose leaf lettuce or iceberg lettuce. If using iceberg lettuce, chop it up. Cut up a few ripe tomatoes. Get out dressing of choice. We like ranch or mayonnaise ... also some salsa if you like.

Spread warm tortilla with dressing, cover with lettuce, tomatoes and hot chicken. Wrap or roll up.

Serve with Caesar or spinach salad. These taste as good as the original at a fraction of the cost and still give the cook a break. (1 package of Crispy Tenders is enough for 10-12 twisters)
