How to Make Delicious Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Chicken
Cut chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces. This helps the chicken cook faster and makes the wraps easier to eat.
2. Make Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix softened butter with minced garlic and dried parsley. This mixture adds amazing flavor to the chicken.
3. Cook the Chicken
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic butter mixture and let it melt. Add chicken pieces and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring often, until chicken is fully cooked and golden.
4. Prepare the Cheese Mix
In a bowl, combine shredded mozzarella, cheddar, and grated Parmesan cheese. This triple cheese blend makes the wraps extra delicious.
5. Assemble the Wraps
Place each tortilla on a flat surface. Add cooked chicken to the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the chicken. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from bottom to top.
6. Cook the Wraps
In the same skillet, place wraps seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip carefully and cook another 2-3 minutes until the other side is golden and cheese is melted.
Serving and Decoration
How to Serve Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
These wraps are perfect on their own, but here are some great serving ideas:
- With Dipping Sauce: Serve with ranch dressing, marinara sauce, or garlic aioli
- Side Salad: Pair with a simple green salad or coleslaw
- With Soup: Great alongside tomato soup or chicken noodle soup
- Cut and Share: Slice wraps in half diagonally for easy sharing
- Garnish: Sprinkle with fresh parsley or serve with sour cream
Storing Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
- Leftover Wraps: Store cooked wraps in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Reheating: Warm in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or microwave for 30-60 seconds.
- Freezing: These wraps can be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Tips and Tricks for Success
- Don’t Overfill: Too much filling makes wraps hard to roll and messy to eat.
- Room Temperature Tortillas: Warm tortillas are easier to roll without cracking.
- Seal Well: Make sure to tuck in the sides and roll tightly to prevent filling from falling out.
- Low to Medium Heat: Cook wraps on medium heat to avoid burning the outside before cheese melts.
- Let Rest: Allow wraps to rest for 2-3 minutes after cooking so cheese sets slightly.
