Ingredients
2 cups cooked, diced chicken breast
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 medium flour tortillas
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp paprika (optional)
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
Instructions
-
Cook the Chicken: If chicken is uncooked, season it with salt and pepper and cook until fully done. Dice into bite-sized pieces.
-
Prepare the Garlic Chicken Mixture: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic for 30-60 seconds. Add diced chicken, tossing until evenly coated with garlic.
-
Melt the Cheeses: Remove the pan from heat and stir in the mozzarella and cheddar cheese. The heat from the chicken will melt the cheese.
-
Assemble the Wraps: Lay tortillas flat and spoon the cheesy chicken mixture in the center. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly like a burrito.
-
Cook the Wraps: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
-
Serve: Let the wraps rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- For extra heat, add jalapeños or crushed red pepper with the chicken.
- You can swap out the cheeses with provolone, gouda, or pepper jack for different flavors.
- Add vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for added nutrition.
