Ingredients
Scale
- 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
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- ½ cup creamy garlic sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: In a bowl, mix the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure each piece is evenly coated with seasoning.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the seasoned chicken. Sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown. The chicken should be opaque with no pink inside and have a slightly crispy exterior.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of creamy garlic sauce on each tortilla, then evenly distribute the cooked chicken over the top. Sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheese for a gooey, flavorful bite.
- Toast the Wraps: Fold each tortilla in half or roll them burrito-style. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the wraps for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted inside.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice the wraps in half and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot with extra garlic sauce or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce to the chicken seasoning.
- To make it vegetarian, replace the chicken with sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, and bell peppers.
- For a low-carb option, use lettuce wraps instead of tortillas.
- Storage Tip: Keep leftover wraps in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in a skillet for the best texture.
