Ingredients

1 1/2 cloves garlic
1 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 large egg yolk
2 1/4 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp finely grated parmesan cheese
freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Steps

Boil one egg in a small saucepan for 10 minutes, cool it in cold water, peel it, and separate the yolk.
Mash the yolk with anchovies, garlic, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice, then whisk in the olive oil and Parmesan.
Cook the bacon in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat for 6 minutes, then place it on a plate.
Cut the chicken into thin pieces, coat it in flour mixed with garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper, then dip it in two beaten eggs and press on the panko.
Heat the oil in the skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 4 minutes per side until crisp and 165 F inside.
Toss the romaine with the dressing, place it on the tortilla with the chicken and bacon, and roll it closed.
