Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts, diced
4 large flour tortillas
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.
Step 2: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3: Lay the tortillas out on a flat surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce over each tortilla. Evenly distribute the cooked chicken on top of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Step 4: Fold the tortillas over the filling, creating a wrap. In the same non-stick pan, grill the folded wraps for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden and crispy.
Step 5: Remove from the pan and cut each wrap in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes to the chicken seasoning before cooking.
Serve with a fresh side salad or extra garlic dipping sauce for added flavor.
Try using whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
Swap cheddar for pepper jack cheese for a zesty twist.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and the cheese is melted, or microwave briefly but be mindful the tortilla may become less crispy.

FAQs

Can I use pre-cooked chicken for this recipe?

Yes, pre-cooked chicken can save time. Just warm it with the seasonings before assembling the wraps.

What can I substitute for the creamy garlic sauce?

If you don’t have creamy garlic sauce, ranch dressing or a simple garlic mayonnaise can work well as alternatives.
