Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps: A Quick, Easy, and Flavorful Meal

Learn how to make delicious Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps! These easy-to-assemble wraps are packed with seasoned chicken, a creamy garlic sauce, and melted cheese, all in a warm tortilla.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 large chicken breasts, diced (or about 2 cups of pre-cooked chicken)
  • 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
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup creamy garlic sauce
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

1. Cook the Chicken (if not using pre-cooked chicken):

  1. Season Chicken: If using raw chicken breasts, dice them into bite-sized pieces. Season the diced chicken with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, salt, and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat Oil: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Cook Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked through and no longer pink.
  4. Set Aside: Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set it aside to cool slightly.

2. Prepare the Filling: Combining the Flavors

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken (either pre-cooked or freshly cooked), shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and the creamy garlic sauce.
  2. Mix Well: Stir all the ingredients together until they are well combined and the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce and cheese.

3. Assemble the Wraps: Creating Delicious Parcels

  1. Warm Tortillas (Optional): If desired, you can warm the tortillas slightly to make them more pliable. You can do this by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving them for a few seconds, or by heating them in a dry skillet for a few seconds per side.
  2. Lay Out Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean work surface.
  3. Spread Sauce: Spread the remaining garlic sauce evenly among the tortillas, if desired.
  4. Add Filling: Spoon the chicken and cheese mixture onto the center of each tortilla, dividing it evenly among the four tortillas.

4. Fold the Wraps: Securing the Filling

  1. Fold: Fold each tortilla over the filling, burrito-style. Fold the bottom edge up over the filling, then fold in the two sides, and finally, roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.

5. Grill the Wraps (Optional): Adding a Crispy Finish

  1. Heat Skillet: Heat the same non-stick pan you used for the chicken over medium heat.
  2. Grill Wraps: Place the folded wraps in the heated skillet, seam-side down. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6. Serve and Enjoy: The Finishing Touches

  1. Garnish (Optional): Garnish the wraps with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
  2. Serve Warm: Serve the Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps immediately while they are warm and the cheese is melted.
