Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
These cheesy garlic chicken wraps are a mix of creamy, cheesy flavors with a hint of garlic. They're filled with tender shredded chicken seasoned with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Wrapped in warm, golden tortillas, they're both tasty and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken shredded or diced
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese softened
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 4 large tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish, optional
Instructions
- In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and heat through.
- In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese.
- Remove the chicken from the heat and mix it with the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
- Lay out the tortillas and evenly divide the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top of the chicken mixture.
- Fold the tortillas into wraps, tucking in the sides as you roll them up.
- Heat a clean skillet or grill pan over medium heat and cook the wraps for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
Substitutions: You can easily swap out the mozzarella or cheddar cheese for other cheese varieties like feta or goat cheese to change up the flavor profile. For a leaner option, use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream, or opt for low-fat cream cheese.
Dietary Modifications: To make these wraps gluten-free, simply use gluten-free tortillas and check the labels on other ingredients like cream cheese and shredded cheese. For a vegetarian version, substitute the chicken with plant-based proteins like tofu or tempeh.
Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare the chicken filling in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, just fill the tortillas, cook, and enjoy!
Storing and Reheating: Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat them in a skillet or oven to maintain their crispy texture. Avoid microwaving if you want the tortillas to stay crispy.
