Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Garlic Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked, diced chicken breast
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Cheese

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Wraps

  • 4 medium flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook and Dice Chicken: Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and black pepper. Bake, sauté, or grill the chicken until fully cooked. Allow it to cool slightly, then dice into small bite-sized pieces and set aside.
  2. Sauté Garlic: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden and fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Combine Chicken and Garlic: Add the diced chicken to the pan with the garlic oil. Toss to coat the chicken evenly with the garlic flavor.
  4. Add Cheese: Remove the pan from heat. Immediately stir in the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese while the chicken is still hot to allow the cheese to begin melting.
  5. Fill the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center of the tortilla. Fold in the sides and then roll it tightly like a burrito.
  6. Cook the Wraps: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down into the skillet and press gently. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully to prevent the filling from spilling out.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove the cooked wraps from the skillet and allow them to rest for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute cooked rotisserie or leftover chicken to save time.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the chicken and garlic mixture.
  • Use low-fat cheese to reduce calories if preferred.
  • Serve with a side salad or salsa for a complete meal.
  • Wraps can be prepared ahead and refrigerated; reheat in a skillet or oven before serving.
