Ingredients

Ingredients for Easy Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 large tortillas
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (optional)

Gather all these ingredients before you start cooking for a smooth experience.

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Combine Ingredients

Add the shredded chicken to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and stir until well combined. Cook for 3-5 minutes.

Assemble the Wraps

Lay the tortillas flat and spoon the chicken mixture onto the center of each. Top with shredded cheese.

Wrap and Cook

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly. Cook on a skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden and the cheese is melted.

Once cooked, let them cool for a minute before slicing in half and serving.

Storage Tips

If you happen to have leftovers, storing them properly is key to preserving their flavor and texture. Wrap any uneaten wraps tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place them in an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in a skillet for the best results, ensuring the tortilla remains crisp while the cheese melts.

For longer storage, consider freezing them. Assemble the wraps without cooking them, then place them in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, simply thaw in the refrigerator overnight and cook as directed. This way, you’ll always have a delicious, quick meal on hand!

Serving Suggestions

To enhance your Easy Cheesy Chicken Garlic Wraps, consider a few serving suggestions. A side of salsa or a refreshing guacamole could add a zesty finish. You might also enjoy pairing them with a cooling ranch dressing or sour cream for dipping, which adds an extra layer of flavor with every bite.

Serving these wraps with a colorful side salad can increase the nutritional value and provide a nice contrast to the warm, cheesy wraps. A simple green salad with a vinaigrette dressing is fast to prepare and balances the meal beautifully.
