Ingredients

  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: lettuce, tomato slices, sour cream, or your favorite sauce

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the sliced chicken to the pan, season with paprika, salt, and pepper, and cook until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Warm the tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds to make them more pliable.
  4. Divide the cooked chicken evenly between the tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the chicken while still hot, allowing it to melt slightly.
  5. Add any optional veggies or sauces if desired.
  6. Roll the tortillas tightly into wraps, folding in the sides as you go.
  7. For extra melty cheese and a crispy outside, place the wrapped tortillas back in the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown (optional).
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use pre-cooked chicken to save time by warming it with garlic before assembling.
  • Cheddar, mozzarella, or blends work well; pepper jack or smoked cheese add extra flavor.
  • Adding sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, jalapeños, or hot sauce boosts flavor and spice.
  • Swap flour tortillas for whole wheat or low-carb wraps for lighter or low-carb options.
  • Store leftovers wrapped tightly in foil or airtight containers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat in a skillet for crispy tortillas and melted cheese; microwaving is a quick alternative.
