Description
Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps are a quick, comforting meal packed with creamy, garlicky chicken and cheese, all crisped to golden perfection in a skillet. Perfect for lunch or dinner, and great for using up leftover chicken.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced; grilled, roasted, or rotisserie)
1 cup shredded mozzarella (or a blend with cheddar or Monterey Jack)
½ cup cream cheese, softened
2–3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
2 tbsp fresh parsley or green onions, chopped (optional)
Salt & pepper to taste
4 large flour tortillas
2 tbsp butter or olive oil (for toasting)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheese, garlic, parsley or green onions, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Warm the tortillas slightly to prevent cracking. Spoon the filling into the center of each tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll tightly.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter or olive oil. Place the wraps seam-side down and toast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Slice in half and serve with your choice of dipping sauce like ranch, garlic aioli, or marinara.
Notes
Add sautéed spinach or roasted red peppers for extra nutrition.
Use garlic herb cream cheese for more flavor.
Try pepper jack cheese or hot sauce for a spicy twist.
Wrap leftovers in foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
To reheat, use a skillet for crispness or microwave for convenience.
To freeze, wrap tightly and store. Thaw overnight in the fridge and re-toast in a skillet.
To bake instead of toast, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for 10–12 minutes until golden.
