Description

Deliciously creamy and packed with flavorful garlic chicken and gooey cheese, these wraps are quick to make and perfect for lunch or dinner. Crispy on the outside with a rich, cheesy filling, they’re sure to become a favorite!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese

  • ¼ cup cream cheese, softened

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 4 large tortillas

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  • Sauté Garlic
    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic as it will turn bitter.

  • Heat Chicken
    Add the cooked chicken to the skillet. Season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly and heat through. (Leftover rotisserie chicken works great here.)

  • Mix Cheeses
    In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese. Mix until smooth. Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easy mixing.

  • Combine Chicken and Cheese Mixtures
    Remove the skillet from heat. Add the chicken mixture to the cheese mixture and stir until fully combined.

  • Assemble Wraps
    Lay out the tortillas and divide the chicken mixture evenly in the center of each. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top. Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling and roll tightly into wraps.

 

  • Cook Wraps
    Heat a clean skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Press down gently with a spatula for even browning and to help seal the wraps.

Notes

Use your choice of cheese: mozzarella, cheddar, or a blend for varied flavor.

Add chopped spinach or sautéed mushrooms for extra veggies.

Spice it up by adding red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the chicken mix.
