how to make Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

Cut and season the chicken first. Cook it in a pan until it is golden and done. Spread garlic sauce on the tortilla, add chicken, and top with cheddar and mozzarella. Fold the wrap and grill it until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese melts. This method is fast and works well with simple sides like salad or fries. You can find another simple chicken grain dish like Turkish chicken and rice if you want a full plate.

Ingredients :

2 large chicken breasts, diced, 4 large flour tortillas, 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, 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce, Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions :

In a bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and fully cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Lay the tortillas out on a flat surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce over each tortilla. Evenly distribute the cooked chicken on top of each tortilla. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Fold the tortillas over the filling, creating a wrap. In the same non-stick pan, grill the folded wraps for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden and crispy.
Remove from the pan and cut each wrap in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.

how to serve Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

Serve the wraps hot so the cheese stays melted. Cut each wrap in half for easy eating. Pair with a simple salad, chips, or steamed vegetables. For a street-food twist, serve with pickles and a side sauce like yogurt or hot sauce. For a different chicken wrap idea, you can look at a grilled style like Turkish chicken doner kebab for more flavors.

how to store Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

Cool the wraps to room temperature first. Wrap each one in foil or store in an airtight container. Keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in a pan and warm both sides until the cheese melts, or heat in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes.
