Introduction

These Cozy Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are the perfect quick and comforting meal, combining tender chicken, rich cheese, and a hint of garlic in a warm tortilla. They’re easy to make and ideal for lunch or a casual dinner that everyone will love.

Three grilled chicken and melted cheese wraps lie side by side on a white plate, each wrap showing a crispy golden-brown outer layer with charred spots and sprinkled with fresh green parsley. The wraps reveal thick, juicy chicken pieces with gooey, stretchy white cheese oozing out from the ends. Around the plate, small bits of parsley add color contrast. In the background, two small bowls hold smooth white sour cream and a chunky red salsa with green herbs, all placed on a white marbled surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish
Optional Add-Ins: Sautéed vegetables (bell peppers, onions, or spinach), hot sauce or salsa

Instructions

Step 1: Sauté the minced garlic in olive oil over medium heat for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, sautéed garlic, cream cheese, and shredded cheese. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to your taste.
Step 3: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface and spoon an even amount of the chicken mixture onto the center of each.
Step 4: Fold the sides over the filling and roll the tortilla tightly to form a wrap.
Step 5: Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the wraps seam-side down. Grill each wrap for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese inside has melted.
Step 6: Remove from the skillet, slice each wrap in half, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve warm.

Tips & Variations

For extra veggies, add sautéed bell peppers, onions, or spinach into the filling before assembling the wraps.
Try adding a dash of hot sauce or salsa into the mixture for a spicy kick.
Use whole wheat tortillas for a heartier, healthier option.
Make sure the cream cheese is softened to blend smoothly with the other ingredients.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and the cheese is melty again, or use a microwave for a quicker option.

FAQs

Can I use raw chicken for this recipe?

This recipe calls for cooked chicken, but you can use raw chicken if you cook it thoroughly before mixing it with the other ingredients.
