Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced
Cheese:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Seasoning and Oil:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wrap Components:
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 0.5 cup creamy garlic sauce
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Sizzle diced chicken in olive oil over medium heat at 375°F, seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes until fully opaque and thoroughly cooked.
- Incorporate shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses into the hot chicken, stirring until completely melted and uniformly combined. Allow mixture to rest momentarily.
- Position tortilla flat, centering a substantial portion of cheesy chicken mixture. Drizzle creamy garlic sauce across the filling for enhanced flavor profile.
- Fold tortilla sides inward, then roll from bottom edge tightly, ensuring complete enclosure of ingredients. Repeat process for remaining tortillas.
- Heat skillet with olive oil over medium temperature. Position wraps seam-side downward, searing for 2-3 minutes per side until exterior achieves golden, crispy texture.
- Transfer wraps from skillet, slice diagonally. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for vibrant presentation and optional aromatic enhancement. Serve immediately while warm and crisp.
Notes
- Customize protein options by swapping chicken with tofu, shredded turkey, or plant-based alternatives for dietary diversity.
- Experiment with cheese blends like pepper jack, gouda, or dairy-free versions to create unique flavor profiles.
- Ensure chicken is thoroughly cooked by checking internal temperature reaches 165°F using a meat thermometer for food safety.
- Make wraps ahead and store in refrigerator for quick meal prep, reheating works best in a skillet to maintain crispy texture.
