Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional, for extra creaminess)
For additional flavor variety or dietary preferences, consider adding:
- Fresh spinach or kale for added greens
- Sliced jalapeños for a spicy kick
- Bell peppers for sweetness and crunch
Instructions
- Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juicy. Remove from heat and let rest.
- Slice or shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Mix in half of the shredded cheese and chopped parsley if using. Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess if desired.
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a surface. Spoon the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll tightly to form a wrap. Repeat for all tortillas.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cheese is gooey inside.
Notes
- Use fresh garlic for a robust flavor, but garlic powder can be a quick substitute.
- Add diced jalapeños or hot sauce inside for extra spiciness.
- Skip frying for a healthier option—serve wraps warm.
- Experiment with different cheeses to customize taste and gooeyness.
