Cozy Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

Cozy cheesy garlic chicken wraps became a go-to meal for me after a busy weekday when I needed something quick but satisfying. I had leftover chicken, a pack of tortillas, and a block of cheese, so I decided to throw them together with a touch of garlic. The melty cheese, savory chicken, and hint of garlic created an irresistible wrap that I’ve been making ever since.

Now I love preparing these wraps for lunch or dinner because they’re easy, flavorful, and customizable. The combination of juicy chicken and gooey cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla is pure comfort in every bite.

Ingredients

Here’s what I use for this recipe. You can adjust it to suit your taste!

• Cooked chicken – The main protein, shredded for easy wrapping.
• Tortillas – Soft and flexible, perfect for holding all the fillings.
• Shredded cheese – Melts beautifully to give the wraps a creamy texture.
• Garlic – Adds a subtle kick and aroma to the filling.
• Olive oil or butter – For toasting the wraps to golden perfection.
• Fresh herbs – Optional, for a fresh garnish.
• Salt and pepper – To season the chicken perfectly.
• Tools You’ll Need
• Skillet – To toast the wraps and melt the cheese.
• Mixing bowl – For combining chicken with garlic and seasoning.
• Knife and cutting board – For chopping and prepping.
• Spatula – To flip the wraps while cooking.
• Plate – To serve the wraps hot and fresh.

Instructions

Step 1

I start by mixing the shredded chicken with minced garlic, a little olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Step 2

I lay out the tortillas and sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over each one.

Step 3

I add the garlic chicken on top of the cheese, spreading it evenly for a perfect bite in every wrap.

Step 4

I roll up the tortillas tightly, folding in the sides to keep everything inside.

Step 5

I heat a skillet over medium heat with a little butter and place the wraps seam-side down, toasting them until golden brown on both sides.

Step 6

As the cheese melts and the wraps get crispy, I remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a minute.

Step 7

Finally, I garnish with fresh herbs and serve them warm.

Tips

I sometimes add a drizzle of garlic sauce or a bit of ranch dressing inside the wrap for extra flavor. You can also throw in some sautéed vegetables to make them heartier. For a spicier version, add a sprinkle of chili flakes to the chicken mix.

Ways to Serve

These wraps are perfect on their own, but I love serving them with a side salad, fries, or even a simple dipping sauce like sour cream or salsa.
