Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Filling
- 2 cups cooked, diced chicken breast
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Wrap
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: If your chicken is not yet cooked, season lightly with salt and black pepper and bake, sauté, or grill until fully cooked. Dice the chicken into small bite-sized pieces and set aside for later use.
- Sauté Garlic and Combine: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden and fragrant. Add the diced chicken to the pan and toss well to coat the chicken evenly with garlic oil.
- Melt Cheese with Chicken: Remove the pan from heat and stir in shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses while the chicken mixture is still hot, allowing the cheese to start melting.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito to secure the filling.
- Cook the Wraps: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and press gently with a spatula. Cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes until the tortilla turns golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully to avoid spilling the filling.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the cooked wraps from the skillet and let them rest for 1 to 2 minutes. Optionally, sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh touch. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Using pre-cooked chicken speeds up the assembly process.
- You can substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat for a healthier variation.
- Adjust cheese quantities according to personal preference for cheesiness.
- Adding chopped vegetables like bell peppers or onions can add extra flavor and texture.
- Serve these wraps with a side salad or salsa for a complete meal.
