Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Cheese Mixture
- 2 cups cooked, diced chicken breast
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Wraps
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the chicken: If your chicken is not cooked yet, season it lightly with salt and black pepper. You can bake, sauté, or grill the chicken until fully cooked. Then, dice it into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside.
- Sauté garlic: Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a pan. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until it becomes golden and fragrant but not burnt.
- Combine chicken and garlic oil: Add the diced chicken to the pan with the garlic oil. Toss well to coat the chicken evenly, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Melt the cheese: Remove the pan from heat and immediately stir in both the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses while the chicken is still hot. This helps the cheese start melting.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous portion of the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito to seal.
- Cook the wraps: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and gently press. Cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping carefully to avoid filling spillage.
- Rest and serve: Once cooked, remove the wraps from the skillet and let them rest for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top if desired, then serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken to save cooking time.
- Adjust the amount of garlic to suit your taste preference.
- Substitute cheddar or mozzarella with your favorite melting cheese for variety.
- For a healthier option, use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas.
- Be careful not to overcook the garlic to avoid bitterness.
- Wraps can be prepared ahead and stored in the fridge; reheat them in a skillet or oven for best texture.
