Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

Ingredients:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
• 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
• 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
• 1/4 cup sour cream (optional for extra creaminess)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or a cheese blend of your choice)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
• 4 large flour tortillas
• Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Chicken:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
• Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked (internal temperature should be 165°F/75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.

2. Make the Garlic Sauce:

• In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant (don’t let it burn).
• Add the cream cheese and sour cream (if using) to the skillet and stir until smooth and melted together, creating a creamy garlic sauce. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a splash of water or milk to thin it out to your preferred consistency.

3. Assemble the Wraps:

• Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface.
• In the center of each tortilla, layer the sliced chicken, followed by a generous spoonful of the creamy garlic sauce.
• Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese (if using) on top of the chicken and sauce mixture.

4. Wrap and Cook:

• Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll it up tightly into a wrap.
• Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the wraps seam side down and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.

5. Serve:

• Remove the wraps from the skillet and slice them in half. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, marinara, or extra garlic sauce!

Tips:

• Add Veggies: Feel free to add some sautéed veggies like bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrition.
• Grilled Chicken: For a smokier flavor, you can grill the chicken instead of pan-frying it.
• Spicy Version: Add a little sriracha or red pepper flakes to the sauce for a spicy kick.
• Meal Prep: These wraps are great for meal prepping. Simply prepare the chicken and garlic sauce ahead of time, then assemble and heat the wraps when you’re ready to eat.

These Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are packed with flavor and incredibly satisfying. They’re perfect for a quick and comforting meal that’s sure to please everyone at the table!
