Description

Deliciously melty Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps featuring tender seasoned chicken combined with a creamy cheese mixture, all wrapped in warm tortillas and pan-grilled to golden perfection. A perfect quick dinner or snack packed with savory garlic flavor and cheesy goodness.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tbsp butter (melted)

Cheese Mixture

  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (divided)
  • ¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
  • ¼ cup sour cream

Wraps

  • 4 large tortillas
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Sauté garlic: In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned to release the garlic’s flavor.
  2. Add chicken and seasonings: Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, then sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook until the chicken is heated through and evenly coated with the seasonings.
  3. Prepare cheese mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese. Stir until smooth and creamy, ensuring even consistency.
  4. Combine chicken and cheese mixtures: Mix the seasoned chicken into the cheese mixture thoroughly, making sure every piece is coated with the cheesy blend.
  5. Assemble wraps: Lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the chicken-cheese mixture onto each one. Top with the remaining shredded cheese, then fold and roll the tortillas tightly into wraps.
  6. Cook wraps: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam side down and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas turn golden brown and the cheese inside melts completely.
  7. Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken leftovers or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Adjust garlic quantity to taste if preferred stronger or milder garlic flavor.
  • For extra crispiness, brush tortillas lightly with olive oil before cooking.
  • Substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier twist.
  • Wraps can be halved for easier handling and sharing.
