Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (optional for extra flavor)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  2. Stir in cooked chicken, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until the garlic is golden and chicken is heated through, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or sour cream on each.
  4. Add spoonfuls of the seasoned chicken, then sprinkle generously with shredded cheese. Drizzle with lemon juice and garnish with parsley or cilantro.
  5. Roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides.
  6. For crispy wraps, toast in a hot skillet until golden and cheese melts, about 2-3 minutes per side. Alternatively, bake or air fry for a crispy finish.

Notes

  • Feel free to customize with sliced jalapeños or sautéed vegetables for added flavor and nutrition.
  • For healthier options, use whole wheat tortillas and low-fat cheese.
  • Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
