Ingredients
Chicken
-
2 large chicken breasts, diced
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
2 teaspoons garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
1 teaspoon paprika
-
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Wrap Assembly
-
4 large flour tortillas
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
½ cup creamy garlic sauce
-
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Season the Chicken
Place the diced chicken in a large bowl. Add olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and fully cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of creamy garlic sauce down the center of each tortilla.
Evenly divide the cooked chicken among the tortillas. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Step 4: Toast Until Crispy
Fold the sides of each tortilla inward to secure the filling. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet over medium heat.
Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy and the cheese has melted.
Step 5: Serve
Remove from the skillet, slice diagonally, and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately while hot and cheesy.
