How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
Ingredients
- 480 grams cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 110 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 60 grams shredded cheddar cheese
- 20 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 45 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken breast, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Place a flour tortilla on a clean work surface. Spoon roughly 120 grams of the prepared filling onto the center of the tortilla. Fold the sides inwards and roll tightly, forming a burrito shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and dried parsley. Stir well to combine.
- Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush the exterior of each wrap with the garlic butter. Place seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Preheat the oven to 190°C. Brush the wraps with garlic butter and arrange them seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until lightly crisp and thoroughly heated.
- Serve the wraps while hot, accompanied by preferred dipping sauces such as ranch, marinara, or creamy garlic aioli.
