Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Seasoning
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Wrap and Sauce
- 4 large flour tortillas
- ½ cup creamy garlic sauce
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until the chicken pieces are evenly coated with the seasonings.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Prepare the Tortillas: Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce evenly over each tortilla to add moisture and flavor.
- Assemble the Wraps: Divide the cooked chicken evenly among the tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top of the chicken for a cheesy filling.
- Fold the Wraps: Fold each tortilla over the filling tightly to form a wrap, ensuring the filling is enclosed.
- Grill the Wraps: Using the same pan, place the wraps seam side down and grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Grill until the cheese melts inside and the tortillas become golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the pan, slice each in half for easy handling, garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- You can substitute the creamy garlic sauce with ranch dressing or a garlic aioli variant for a different flavor.
- Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to make this recipe gluten sensitive.
- To speed up cooking, use pre-cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken.
- Add some sliced avocado or fresh vegetables for added texture and nutrition.
- Make sure not to overfill the wraps to prevent them from bursting during grilling.
