How to Make the Recipe

Let’s dive into the step-by-step process:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Remove from the pan and cut each wrap in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are a few tips to make your cheesy chicken wraps even better:

  • For an extra crispy tortilla, lightly brush the outside with olive oil before grilling.
  • Use leftover shredded or diced chicken to make this recipe even quicker.
  • Customize the filling with your favorite add-ins, like diced veggies or a sprinkle of fresh herbs.

How to Serve

These wraps are delicious on their own, but they’re even better paired with a few sides. Try serving them with:

  • A fresh green salad
  • A bowl of easy pasta recipes like my Creamy Smothered Chicken Rice
  • A side of crispy fries or chips
  • A simple soup for a comforting meal

Make Ahead and Storage

Prepping these wraps ahead of time is a breeze:

  • Prepare the seasoned chicken and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Assemble the wraps just before cooking for the best results.
  • Leftover wraps can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a pan or microwave until crispy and hot.
