Mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt in a bowl.

Soak chicken thighs in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off.

Dredge chicken in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

Fry chicken in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.

Transfer cooked chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.

Layer lettuce, sliced tomato, cheddar cheese, and fried chicken on each tortilla.

Drizzle with hot sauce to taste.

Wrap tortillas tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you roll.

Cut wraps in half and serve immediately.
