Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Seasoning
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Cheese and Wraps
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
Sauce and Garnish
- 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: In a large bowl, mix the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until the chicken is evenly coated with all the seasonings.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked through and browned on all sides. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside the cooked chicken.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a spoonful of creamy garlic sauce onto each tortilla, then evenly distribute the cooked chicken over the sauce. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly on top of the chicken.
- Melt the Cheese: Fold the tortillas over the filling to create wraps. Place the wraps back into the non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes until the cheese inside melts and the tortillas turn golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and slice each wrap in half. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately while warm and gooey.
Notes
- You can substitute the tortillas with whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas if preferred.
- For extra heat, add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the chicken seasoning.
- If you don’t have creamy garlic sauce, substitute with ranch dressing or a mix of mayonnaise and minced garlic.
- Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety.
- Use pre-shredded cheese to save time, or shred your own from blocks for fresher flavor.
