Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, toss the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until the chicken is evenly coated.
Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the seasoned chicken for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat.
Step 3: Lay out the tortillas and spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce on each one. Add the cooked chicken evenly on top, then sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
Step 4: Fold the tortillas over the filling and place them back in the skillet. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes until the tortillas turn golden and the cheese has melted inside.
Step 5: Slice the wraps in half and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

Try swapping chicken for grilled shrimp, turkey, or crispy tofu for a different protein option.
Use whole wheat, low-carb, or spinach tortillas to make the wraps healthier and add extra flavor.
For an extra kick, add a pinch of chili flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce before folding the wraps.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, warm them in a skillet or air fryer to keep the tortillas crispy and the cheese melted beautifully.

How to Serve

Two grilled wraps are stacked on top of each other on a wooden board, with the top wrap slightly angled to show its filling. The outer tortilla is golden brown with charred spots and small green herb pieces sprinkled on top. Inside, there are visible melted light yellow cheese layers mixed with chunks of cooked chicken and tiny red pepper bits, all oozing out slightly from the open end. The wooden board beneath has a few scattered green herb leaves. The background is a soft white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other types of cheese in these wraps?

Yes, you can substitute cheddar and mozzarella with your favorite cheeses such as Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or a mild gouda. Just choose cheeses that melt well for the best texture.
