Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 2 cups Cooked chicken, diced this leftover star ingredient saves time and makes the wraps even tastier.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil adds richness and helps sauté the garlic to perfection.
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced fresh garlic elevates the flavor and gives these wraps an aromatic punch.
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded creates that ooey-gooey texture that makes each bite delightful.
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded adds a sharp flavor that complements the creamy mozzarella.
For the Wrap
  • 4 large Tortillas use your favorite type for a personal touch.
  • 2 tablespoons Butter helps crisp up the wraps in the skillet.
  • Salt and pepper to taste, enhance all the flavors.
For Garnish
  • Chopped parsley for garnish (optional).

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. If your chicken isn’t already cooked, season it lightly with salt and pepper, then bake, sauté, or grill until fully cooked through, about 20-25 minutes at 375°F. Dice into small pieces.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden and aromatic.
  3. Add diced chicken to the skillet, tossing to coat. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, then stir in mozzarella and cheddar cheese off the heat.
  4. Lay a tortilla flat, spoon cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center, fold in sides, and roll tightly like a burrito. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  5. Melt butter in the skillet. Place wraps seam-side down and cook each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove wraps from skillet, let rest for 1-2 minutes, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving warm.
