Recipe Details:

  • Preparation Time: 15 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Servings: 4

Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (grilled or rotisserie works great)
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Wraps:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)

Optional Add-Ins:

  • Sliced jalapeños
  • Fresh spinach or arugula
  • Diced tomatoes
Instructions:
  1. Prepare the Garlic Chicken:
    • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
    • Add the shredded chicken, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Set aside.
  2. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on each tortilla.
    • Add a generous portion of the garlic chicken to the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese and any optional add-ins (like jalapeños or spinach).
  3. Wrap and Seal:
    • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly to form a wrap.
    • Brush the outside of each wrap with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and parsley.
  4. Cook the Wraps:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. The cheese should be melted, and the wraps should hold their shape.
  5. Serve:
    • Slice each wrap in half and serve warm with your favorite dips or sides.
Suggested Sides:
  • Salsa or pico de gallo
  • Guacamole
  • A fresh green salad
