  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Wraps:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup (100 g) shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp minced garlic (for brushing)

  • 1/2 cup (60 g) fresh spinach or arugula (optional)

Dipping Sauce Suggestions:

  • Chipotle mayo

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the shredded chicken, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the chicken is heated through and well-seasoned. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Assemble the Wraps

  1. Lay a tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of sour cream or ranch dressing, if desired.
  2. Add 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture to the center of the tortilla.
  3. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Add spinach or arugula for a fresh touch, if desired.
  4. Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it tightly into a wrap.

Step 3: Toast the Wraps

  1. Mix melted butter with 1 tsp minced garlic. Brush this mixture on the outside of each wrap.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  3. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, pressing gently with a spatula to seal.

Step 4: Serve

  1. Slice the wraps in half and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • Swap chicken for shredded rotisserie chicken or leftover turkey for convenience.
  • Add extra veggies like diced tomatoes, bell peppers, or onions for a nutrient boost.
  • For a spicier kick, drizzle hot sauce or sprinkle red pepper flakes inside the wraps.

These Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are irresistibly cheesy, crispy, and packed with flavor.
