Description
Ooey‑gooey cheesy garlic chicken wraps are crispy, melty, and full of savory flavor—perfect for a quick lunch, dinner, or snack. Tender chicken, creamy cheese, and bold garlic come together inside a golden wrap that’s irresistibly delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or chopped; rotisserie works great)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheese blend (cheddar, Monterey Jack, provolone)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 3 cloves garlic, minced or grated
- 2 tbsp butter (for garlic butter spread)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise or sour cream (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a small pan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook gently for 1–2 minutes until fragrant to make garlic butter.
- In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, a handful of shredded mozzarella, mayonnaise or sour cream (if using), salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if desired).
- Spread a generous spoonful of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, then sprinkle with additional cheese on top. Fold each tortilla into a wrap or burrito shape.
- Brush the outside of each wrap with the garlic butter, coating both sides.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the wraps for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp and the cheese has melted inside.
- Slice the wraps in half and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- Add spinach, sun‑dried tomatoes, or sautéed onions for extra flavor and texture.
- Use grilled, baked, or leftover shredded chicken as alternatives to rotisserie chicken.
- Try different cheeses like Swiss, gouda, or feta for a unique taste.
- Use whole wheat or low‑carb wraps to suit dietary preferences.
- Slice into smaller pieces to serve as cheesy chicken pinwheels for parties or appetizers.
