Description
These cheesy garlic chicken wraps are a perfect blend of creamy, cheesy goodness with a garlicky twist. Made with tender shredded chicken, seasoned with garlic powder and Italian seasoning, and wrapped in warm, golden tortillas, these wraps are as delicious as they are simple to make.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
1/4 cup cream cheese (softened)
2 tbsp butter (melted)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
4 large tortillas
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and heat through.
In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese.
Remove the chicken from the heat and mix it with the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
Lay out the tortillas and evenly divide the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top of the chicken mixture.
Fold the tortillas into wraps, tucking in the sides as you roll them up.
Heat a clean skillet or grill pan over medium heat and cook the wraps for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
- Substitutions: You can easily swap out the mozzarella or cheddar cheese for other cheese varieties like feta or goat cheese to change up the flavor profile. For a leaner option, use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream, or opt for low-fat cream cheese.
- Dietary Modifications: To make these wraps gluten-free, simply use gluten-free tortillas and check the labels on other ingredients like cream cheese and shredded cheese. For a vegetarian version, substitute the chicken with plant-based proteins like tofu or tempeh.
- Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare the chicken filling in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, just fill the tortillas, cook, and enjoy!
- Storing and Reheating: Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat them in a skillet or oven to maintain their crispy texture. Avoid microwaving if you want the tortillas to stay crispy.
