Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Cheese Filling
- 2 cups Cooked chicken, diced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Wraps
- 4 large Tortillas
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare chicken: If your chicken is not cooked, season it lightly with salt and pepper, then bake, sauté, or grill at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked. Dice into small pieces.
- Sauté garlic: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden and aromatic. Be careful not to burn it.
- Add chicken and cheese: Toss the diced chicken into the skillet with garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes to warm through. Remove from heat and stir in mozzarella and cheddar cheeses until melted and well combined.
- Assemble wraps: Lay each tortilla flat, spoon the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center, fold in the sides, and roll tightly like a burrito. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Cook wraps crisp: Melt butter in the skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook each side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove wraps from skillet, let rest for 1-2 minutes to cool slightly, then garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Use leftover cooked chicken to save time and intensify flavor.
- Ensure garlic is sautéed only until golden to avoid bitterness.
- Feel free to substitute the tortilla type to your preference: whole wheat, flour, or gluten-free.
- For extra heat, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the filling.
- Store leftover wraps in an airtight container; reheat in a skillet or oven to maintain crispiness.
