Description
Cheesy garlic chicken wraps are crispy on the outside, melty on the inside, and packed with juicy garlic chicken, sautéed veggies, and a creamy cheese blend.
Ingredients
1½ lbs chicken breast, thinly sliced
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, julienned
1 tsp Mediterranean herb blend
½ tsp smoky paprika
Pinch of chili flakes
Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
2 cups spinach leaves
1½ cups shredded mozzarella
½ cup sharp cheddar
3 tbsp cream cheese, room temperature
2 tbsp sour cream
2 tsp fresh chives, chopped
6 large flour tortillas
1½ tbsp melted butter
¾ tsp roasted garlic powder
Instructions
1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden and cooked through.
2. Remove chicken. In the same pan, sauté onion, garlic, herbs, paprika, and chili flakes for 2 minutes.
3. Add bell pepper. Cook until softened. Return chicken and stir in spinach until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
4. In a bowl, mix mozzarella, cheddar, cream cheese, sour cream, and chives.
5. Melt butter and mix with garlic powder. Brush one side of each tortilla and place buttered side down.
6. Spoon cheese mix onto tortillas, then top with chicken-veggie mix. Sprinkle more cheese and fold wraps tightly.
7. Toast wraps seam-side down in a skillet with olive oil spray. Cook until golden and crisp on both sides.
Notes
Let the filling cool slightly before wrapping to prevent soggy tortillas.
Use freshly shredded cheese for smoother melting.
Warm tortillas before assembling for easier folding.
Deglaze your pan with wine or broth after cooking the chicken to add more flavor.
A ⅓ cup scoop works great for even filling portions.
