Description

These Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are a delicious and satisfying meal perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. Tender diced chicken breasts are seasoned and cooked to golden perfection, then combined with creamy garlic sauce and a blend of cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, all wrapped in warm flour tortillas. The wraps are lightly pan-fried until crispy on the outside and gooey with melted cheese inside, offering a perfect balance of flavor and texture.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 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

Cheese and Wraps

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Sauce and Garnish

  • 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, toss the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until the chicken pieces are well-coated with the seasoning mixture.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chicken turns golden brown and is fully cooked through. Remove the skillet from heat.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce evenly over each tortilla. Divide the cooked chicken among the tortillas, distributing it evenly. Then sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken.
  4. Cook the Wraps: Fold the tortillas over the filling to form wraps. Return the wraps to the skillet and cook each side for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. This will crisp up the tortillas and melt the cheese inside.
  5. Serve: Remove the cooked wraps from the skillet, slice them in half if desired, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve the wraps warm and enjoy their rich, cheesy flavor.

Notes

  • If you prefer a different protein, try using grilled shrimp, turkey, or plant-based options like crispy tofu.
  • For a healthier option, substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat, low-carb, or spinach tortillas.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To reheat leftovers, warm them in a skillet or air fryer to restore the crispy exterior and melted cheese.
