Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts cooked and shredded or diced
- 4 soft flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or cheddar
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian herbs optional
- Optional: sautéed onions spinach, or chopped tomatoes (add as "optional" notes or separate items if desired)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook it in a skillet over medium heat until golden and cooked through (about 6-8 minutes per side if raw; skip if using pre-cooked chicken). Optional: Marinate for 30 minutes with garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil before cooking for extra flavor.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: Melt butter in a small pan and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes), then pour over the cooked chicken. Toss to coat evenly.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat and spread a generous amount of shredded cheese across the center. Add a portion of the garlic butter-coated chicken on top. Include optional additions like sautéed onions, spinach, or tomatoes if desired.
- Fold Wraps: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a wrap.
- Cook Wraps: Heat a skillet 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.
- Serve: Slice in half if desired and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce (e.g., garlic aioli, ranch, or marinara).
Notes
- Customize with jalapeños or hot sauce for heat, or sautéed spinach or bell peppers for extra veggies.
- Pair with crispy fries, a light salad, or soup for a complete meal.
- Store leftovers in foil or an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or air fryer for crispness.
