Denny’s Hooburrito Recipe
Requested by TommyShaw on YouTube, this was on Denny’s Late Night Rock Star Menu in 2009 created by Hoobastank. This wrap was supposed to come with fried chicken strips, but this thing is bad enough for you already. I also figured the fried strips would destroy the wrap so I went with a HeLLthier option of slow-cooking pulled chicken instead.

- 2 oz Onion Straws - 80 Calories

- Slow Cook Chicken Ingredients
- 4 Chicken Breast Halves
- 1 Cup Chicken Broth or 1 Cup Water & 1 Bouillon Cube
Onion Straws Ingredients:
- 1-1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour
- 2 Tsp Cayenne Pepper (or more if you like it spicy)
- ½ Tsp Salt
- ½ Tsp Black Pepper
- Buttermilk (Use until onions are fully submerged)
- 1 Large White Onion
- Canola Oil for Frying
Cheese Sauce Ingredients:
- ¼ Cup All Purpose Flour
- ¼ Cup Butter
- 1-1/3 Cup Skim Milk
- 1 Cup Cubed Cheddar Cheese
Instructions:
- Slow Cook Chicken
- Take a fatty chicken breast and cut into halves so they are half as
thick. This will speed up the slow cooking time.
- Pour in 1 Cup Chicken Broth or 1 Cup Water & 1 Bouillon Cube into
a pan. Add in your chicken, don't crowd the pan, about 4 breast
halves should do the trick.
- Bring to a boil and then let it simmer covered for 10 minutes. Flip
once within this time, preferably 5 minutes into it.
- Now bring the pot to a low temperature and let it sit for 30 minutes
or until chicken pulls apart easily.
- Once the chicken is pulling apart nicely, toss it into a medium sized
bowl and add in BBQ sauce of your choice until it mixes well.
Make Onion Straws:
- Cut and peel the White Onion and slice ⅛" thick. Use a
Mandolin Slicer to get consistent cuts and thickness.
- Soak the Onions in Buttermilk in a shallow pan for 1 hour to
marinade.
- Prepare flour mixture by adding about 1-1/2 Cups of All Purpose
Flour, 2 Tsp of Cayenne Pepper, ½ Tsp of Salt & ½ Tsp Pepper
- Once your onions have been soaking for an hour, using tongs, grab a
few rings at a time and cover them in your flour mixture liberally
and immediately submerge into your deep fryer, or pan with oil. (You
want your pan to be on medium heat and the oil temperature to be at
about 365°F)
- Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until they reach the golden brown
consistency you desire.
Cheese Sauce:
- Into a Vitamix blender, add in a ¼ Cup All Purpose Flour, ¼ Cup
Butter, 1-1/3 Cup Skim Milk
- Close the lid and turn on with low power
- Switch to high power and let it blend for 5-6 minutes or until steam
begins to escape the blender
- At this point begin adding your cheese blocks and blend for an
additional 1 minute
