Description
These savory chicken wraps are filled with tender sliced chicken, fresh vegetables, melted cheese, and topped with a rich homemade garlic cream sauce, all wrapped in a warm tortilla. Perfect for a quick and satisfying lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, cooked and sliced
4 large tortillas
1 cup lettuce, chopped
1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
1/4 cup red onion, sliced (optional)
1 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp dried oregano
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.
- Add the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and dried oregano. Stir well and let simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat.
- Warm the tortillas slightly until soft and pliable.
- Layer each tortilla with chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced chicken, shredded cheese, and red onion if using.
- Drizzle the warm garlic cream sauce over the fillings.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap. Slice in half and serve warm.
Notes
Substitute grilled shrimp or sliced steak for the chicken if desired.
For a lighter version, use grilled chicken breast and replace heavy cream with half-and-half.
Add crushed red pepper flakes or hot sauce for extra heat.
Store filling and sauce separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat sauce gently and add a splash of milk or cream if it thickens too much.
