  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 wraps

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large cooked chicken breasts, sliced or shredded
  • 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1/2 cup cooked vegetables (optional, like bell peppers or spinach)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil or butter and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add the cooked chicken pieces and stir until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Distribute the cooked garlic chicken evenly on the center of each tortilla.
  4. Sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and, if using, add cooked vegetables for extra crunch and flavor.
  5. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from one end to the other to enclose the filling completely.
  6. For a crispy finish, brush the outside lightly with some olive oil or melted butter before cooking.
  7. Place the assembled wraps seam-side down in a heated skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing down gently until the cheese melts and the wraps are golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • Replace chicken with grilled steak, shrimp, or tofu for a vegetarian variation.
  • Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
  • For extra flavor, add hot sauce, fresh herbs, or cheese varieties.
  • Reheat in a skillet or microwave for leftovers; the wraps may lose some crispiness but will still taste delicious.
