Ingredients :

• 2 large chicken breasts, diced
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce
• Fresh parsley, chopped

Equipments Needed

• Cutting board and knife
• Mixing bowl
• Non-stick pan
• Spatula
• Cheese grater (if cheese not pre-shredded)
• Serving plate and knife to cut wraps

Step-by-Step Instructions :

1. In a bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.
2. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Lay the tortillas out on a flat surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce over each tortilla. Evenly distribute the cooked chicken on top of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
4. Fold the tortillas over the filling, creating a wrap. In the same non-stick pan, grill the folded wraps for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden and crispy.
5. Remove from the pan and cut each wrap in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.

How to serve Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

Serve hot with extra garlic sauce on the side, a simple salad, or fries. Cut each wrap in half to make it easier to eat. They are also great with salsa, sour cream, or pickles on the side.

How to store Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

• Short term: Store cooled wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Reheat: Warm in a pan over low heat or in a 350°F oven until heated through to keep the wrap crisp.
• Freezing: Wrap tightly in foil and freeze up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge, then reheat in a pan or oven.

Tips & Tricks

• Dice the chicken small so it cooks fast and fits well in the wrap.
• Use two cheeses for better melt and flavor.
• Don’t overfill the tortilla to prevent tearing.
• Cook on medium heat to brown the tortilla without burning.
• Let chicken cool slightly before placing on the tortilla so the sauce does not get too runny.

Variations & Substitutions

• Swap chicken for cooked pulled pork or thin steak slices.
• Use whole wheat or spinach tortillas for a twist.
• Replace creamy garlic sauce with ranch or a spicy mayo.
• Make it vegetarian: use seasoned grilled mushrooms or tofu instead of chicken.
• For a baked version, place filled wraps in a baking dish, brush with oil, and bake at 375°F for 10–12 minutes.
