Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need (full list and measurements below):

Cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
Flour tortillas for wrapping all that goodness
Shredded mozzarella or a melty cheese of your choice
Fresh garlic and butter for that garlicky kick
A sprinkle of Italian seasoning for extra flavor

Directions

Step 1: Prep the Filling

In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with melted butter, minced garlic, shredded cheese, and Italian seasoning. Toss everything together so the flavors meld.

Step 2: Assemble the Wraps

Lay out a tortilla and spoon the cheesy garlic chicken mixture onto the center. Fold in the sides and roll it up tightly like a burrito.

Step 3: Toast Until Crispy

Heat a pan over medium heat and lightly butter it. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

Slice the wraps in half and serve them warm. They’re perfect on their own or with a side of dipping sauce like ranch or marinara.

Expert Tips and Tricks

Use Pre-Cooked Chicken – A rotisserie chicken makes this even easier. Just shred and mix!
Don’t Overfill – Too much filling makes the wraps hard to roll and keep sealed.
Press Down While Cooking – Use a spatula to gently press the wraps down in the pan for even crispiness.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

Spicy Kick – Add red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce for extra heat.
Different Cheeses – Try cheddar, provolone, or even a mix of cheeses.
Extra Veggies – Throw in spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms for added texture.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

These wraps go great with:

Crispy fries or sweet potato wedges
A side salad for a lighter meal
A warm bowl of tomato soup for dipping

Storage and Reheating Tips

Storing Leftovers – Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheating – Pop them in a pan or air fryer for a few minutes to get the crispiness back. Avoid microwaving if you want to keep them crispy.

FAQs

1. Can I bake these instead of pan-frying?
Yes! Bake at 375°F for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

2. What’s the best dipping sauce for these?
Ranch, garlic aioli, or marinara sauce are all delicious choices.

3. Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
Definitely! Assemble them and store in the fridge, then cook when ready to eat.

4. Can I use whole wheat tortillas?
Of course! Whole wheat or even low-carb tortillas work just as well.

Instructions

1. Cook the Garlic Chicken
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shredded chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cook for 2-3 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat.

2. Assemble the Wraps
Lay each flour tortilla flat. Divide the garlic chicken evenly among the tortillas, placing it in the center. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the chicken.

3. Wrap and Seal
Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll them up tightly, like a burrito. Brush each wrap with melted butter and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.

4. Cook the Wraps
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

5. Serve and Enjoy
Remove from heat and let them cool for a minute before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve with ranch or marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

You can use any cheese you prefer, but a mix of mozzarella and Parmesan gives the best flavor.
Swap out the chicken for cooked turkey or even shredded beef for a variation.
Add sautéed bell peppers, onions, or spinach for extra flavor and texture.
