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
Wrap Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken pieces and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked through and has a golden-brown exterior. Remove the skillet from heat and set the chicken aside.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the flour tortillas flat on your work surface. Spread a generous spoonful of creamy garlic sauce evenly over each tortilla. Distribute the cooked chicken evenly over the sauce on each tortilla and then sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese atop the chicken.
- Melt and Crisp: Fold each tortilla securely over the filling to form tight wraps. Return the wraps to the skillet over medium heat and cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes, until the cheese melts and the tortillas get golden and crisp.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the wraps from the skillet and slice each in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm for a cheesy, flavorful meal.
Notes
- For a healthier option, use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas.
- You can substitute the chicken breasts with chicken thighs for juicier meat.
- Make your own creamy garlic sauce by mixing mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
- To make it spicier, add a dash of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the seasoning.
- Leftover wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat in a skillet or oven for best results.
