Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced – for juicy, protein-packed filling
- 4 large flour tortillas – to wrap and crisp the ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil – enhances flavor and helps cook the chicken evenly
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder – provides bold garlic flavor without burning
- 1 teaspoon onion powder – adds savory depth
- 1 teaspoon paprika – brings mild smokiness and color
- Salt and pepper, to taste – enhances overall flavor
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – adds sharp, cheesy richness
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – for melty, stretchy cheese pulls
- 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce – keeps the wraps moist and flavorful
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional) – for garnish and fresh finish
Instructions
- Dice the chicken into small, even pieces. In a bowl, toss with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Lay the tortillas flat. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce on each. Top with the cooked chicken and both cheeses.
- Fold the tortillas tightly into wraps, ensuring the sides are tucked in.
- Return the wraps to the pan over medium-low heat. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until crispy and golden brown.
- Slice in half, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Warm tortillas slightly before assembling to prevent cracking.
- Use freshly grated cheese for optimal melting.
- Substitute garlic sauce with ranch, chipotle mayo, or cream cheese for variety.
- For meal prep, cook chicken ahead and assemble wraps just before serving.
- Add red pepper flakes to the seasoning for a spicy version.
