Ingredients

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
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 large flour tortillas
1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, toss the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the seasoned chicken for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Remove from heat.
Step 3: Lay out the tortillas and spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce on each one. Add the cooked chicken, then sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Step 4: Fold the tortillas over the filling and return them to the skillet. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes until the tortillas are golden and the cheese has melted.
Step 5: Slice the wraps in half and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

For a different protein, try grilled shrimp, turkey, or plant-based options like crispy tofu.
Use whole wheat, low-carb, or spinach tortillas for a healthier twist.

Storage

Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer to restore the crispy exterior and melty cheese.

Can I use pre-cooked chicken for this recipe?

Yes, you can use pre-cooked chicken to save time. Just warm it slightly before assembling the wraps to ensure the cheese melts properly.
