Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Flavoring

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 cloves garlic, freshly minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon paprika or chili flakes

Cheese and Wrap

1 cup shredded cheese (blend of cheddar and mozzarella)
4 soft flour tortillas

Extras

1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 cup fresh spinach or lettuce

Optional Variations

Grilled bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms for veggie boost
Jalapeños or hot sauce for spicy twist
Vegan cheese or avocado slices for dairy-free version
Large lettuce leaves or low-carb wraps for low-carb option
Shredded rotisserie chicken, turkey, or tofu as alternative protein

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips or bite-sized pieces. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add the chicken, season with salt, pepper, and optional spices if using. Cook until the chicken is golden and fully cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes.
Add Cheese: Lower the heat and sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the cooked chicken in the pan. Cover with a lid and let the cheese melt gently and become gooey, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Assemble the Wraps: Lay the flour tortillas flat and spread a spoonful of sour cream or Greek yogurt down the center of each. Add a handful of fresh spinach or lettuce, then pile on the cheesy garlic chicken mixture. Fold the sides and roll tightly to secure all the filling inside.
Optional Toasting: For a crispy finish, lightly toast each wrap in a clean pan or grill press for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown and warm throughout.

Notes

Use fresh garlic for the best and most robust flavor.
Don’t overcook the chicken to keep it juicy and tender.
Combining mozzarella and cheddar cheese gives the perfect melt and sharpness.
Warm tortillas slightly before assembling to prevent cracking during rolling.
Wrap the tortillas tightly to ensure fillings stay inside and eating is less messy.
