Can I make these wraps ahead of time?

Yes! You can cook the chicken and prep the sauce in advance. Assemble the wraps just before eating to keep them fresh and crispy. If you need to store them, refrigerate and reheat in a skillet for best texture.

What’s the best way to keep the wraps from falling apart?

Avoid overfilling and make sure to fold the sides in tightly before rolling. Toasting the wraps in a skillet helps seal the edges and holds everything together.

Can I use different types of cheese?

Absolutely. While cheddar and mozzarella give you that perfect melt and flavor balance, you can swap in provolone, Monterey Jack, or even a spicy pepper jack.

Is there a healthier sauce option I can use?

For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt mixed with garlic and lemon juice as a substitute for creamy garlic sauce. You still get flavor without the richness.

Instructions

Season the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper until every piece is well coated.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the seasoned chicken for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fully cooked. The chicken should be firm to the touch and no longer pink in the center.
Prepare the Wraps: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce in the center of each tortilla, leaving space around the edges for folding.
Assemble the Filling: Add a portion of the cooked chicken over the sauce, then top with a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Be careful not to overfill or it will be hard to wrap.
Fold and Toast: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly. Toast the wraps in a clean, dry skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese inside is fully melted.
Serve and Enjoy: Slice the wraps in half diagonally, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve warm with your favorite side.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the seasoning for 30 minutes before cooking. You can add spinach, sautéed peppers, or caramelized onions to the wraps for added veggies. To reheat leftovers, skip the microwave and use a skillet to maintain crispiness. Use a grill pan if you want beautiful sear lines and a slightly smoky flavor.
