Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
Garlic Sauce
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Optional Add-ins
- 1/2 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup sliced red onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce: In a small pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned. Stir in the salt, pepper, and parsley if using. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken with the garlic butter sauce, tossing to fully coat. Mix in the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses until evenly distributed. If adding veggies, gently fold them in now.
- Fill the Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat and divide the chicken and cheese mixture evenly among them, placing the filling in a line down the center of each tortilla.
- Wrap the Chicken Wraps: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly from the bottom to form a wrap.
- Cook the Wraps: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden brown and the cheese has melted inside.
- Serve: Slice the wraps in half and enjoy hot with your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
Notes
- Use rotisserie or leftover chicken to save time.
- Swap cheeses to your preference—try Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack for a spicy kick.
- Add your favorite veggies like bell peppers or avocado for extra flavor and texture.
- For a crispier wrap, brush the outside lightly with oil before grilling.
