Ingredients

To whip up these Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps, you’ll need just a few simple ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp butter, melted
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh spinach or lettuce (optional, for an extra crunch)

Tools You’ll Need

  • A skillet (non-stick works best)
  • A bowl for mixing
  • A brush for buttering the tortillas
  • A spatula for flipping

How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

Let’s get cooking! Here’s a step-by-step guide to making these delicious wraps:

  1. Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella, cream cheese, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is well blended and creamy.
  2. Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly divide the cheesy chicken mixture among them. If you’re using spinach or lettuce, add a handful on top of the filling. Roll the tortillas tightly, tucking in the edges as you go.
  3. Brush with Butter: Brush the outside of each wrap with melted butter. This is what will give them that golden, crispy finish!
  4. Cook: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  5. Serve: Serve the wraps warm, and don’t forget to pair them with a dipping sauce like marinara or ranch for an extra burst of flavor!

What to Serve with These Wraps

Wondering what to serve alongside these Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps? Here are a few ideas to round out your meal:

  • Marinara Sauce: Perfect for dipping and adds a nice tangy contrast.
  • Ranch Dressing: If you’re more into creamy dips, ranch is a winner.
  • Side Salad: A fresh green salad balances out the richness of the wraps.
  • Roasted Veggies: Want to add more nutrients? Roasted veggies make a great side!

Tips for Making the Perfect Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

  1. Pre-cook the Chicken: If you’re short on time, you can use rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken breast.
  2. Cheese Options: While mozzarella melts beautifully, feel free to swap it for cheddar, provolone, or even a blend of your favorites.
  3. Crispy Wraps: Want an extra crisp? After brushing with butter, you can sprinkle some Parmesan or breadcrumbs on the outside before cooking.
  4. Storage: Leftovers? No problem! Store any cooked wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the skillet or oven to keep them crispy.
