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

Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken with the seasonings.
Step 2: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and fully cooked. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3: Lay the tortillas flat on a surface. Spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce evenly over each tortilla.
Step 4: Distribute the cooked chicken evenly over the tortillas, then sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top.
Step 5: Fold the tortillas over the filling to create wraps. Return the pan to medium heat and grill each wrap for 2-3 minutes on each side until the cheese melts and the tortillas turn golden and crispy.
Step 6: Remove the wraps from the pan, cut each in half, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the spices for 30 minutes before cooking.
Swap out the cheddar and mozzarella for pepper jack or Monterey Jack for a different cheese twist.
Add sliced avocado or fresh tomatoes inside the wrap for added freshness.
Use whole wheat or spinach tortillas to increase fiber and nutrients.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to keep the tortilla crispy, avoiding the microwave if possible to prevent sogginess.

How to Serve
