  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional add-ins: roasted peppers, spinach, bacon bits

3. Step-by-step Instructions for Making Flavorful Chicken Wraps

Prepare the Garlic-Infused Chicken

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cooked chicken and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assemble the Wraps

Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Spread a spoonful of the garlic chicken mixture evenly over the center of the tortilla. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top. Add optional ingredients like roasted peppers or spinach for extra flavor.

Wrap and Secure

Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Use a toothpick if needed to keep the wrap secure.

Cook the Wraps

Place the assembled wraps seam side down on a preheated skillet or grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted. Alternatively, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes for a crispy exterior.

4. Storage tips for leftovers

If you have leftovers, store the wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, use a microwave or a skillet to crisp up the outside again. Avoid freezing if you want to maintain the best texture.

5. Serving suggestions

Serve these cheesy garlic wraps with a side of fresh salad, crispy fries, or a bowl of warming soup. They are perfect for a quick meal or picnic, and you can add a dash of hot sauce or ranch dressing for extra flavor.

You can substitute mozzarella with cheddar, Monterey Jack, or vegan cheese options based on your preference.
