Ingredients
2 large chicken breasts, diced
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 large flour tortillas
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and chili flakes if using. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the minced garlic and parsley to make garlic butter. Set aside.
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle some cheddar cheese in the center, add a spoonful of cooked chicken, and top with a little more cheese. Fold the sides inward and roll up tightly into a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Brush the outside of each wrap generously with the garlic butter mixture.
Heat a nonstick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese has melted inside.
Remove from the pan and let them rest for a minute before slicing in half. Serve warm.
Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are versatile and can be adjusted to your taste. You can add sautéed onions, peppers, or spinach for extra vegetables. Swap cheddar for mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or a blend of cheeses for a different flavor profile. For a tangy twist, drizzle a little ranch dressing or garlic mayo inside before rolling.
These wraps are best enjoyed hot when the cheese is perfectly melted and stringy. They make a complete meal when served with a simple side salad, crispy fries, or even a bowl of soup. If preparing ahead, you can assemble the wraps and refrigerate them for a few hours, then toast them right before serving.
Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are the kind of recipe that delivers comfort with every bite. Crispy on the outside, cheesy on the inside, and full of garlicky flavor, they are quick to make and always satisfying.
