Description

These Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are a quick and delicious meal perfect for lunch or a light dinner. Tender shredded chicken mixed with creamy garlic aioli and melted cheddar cheese is wrapped in warm tortillas and toasted to golden perfection, creating a savory, comforting dish that’s easy to prepare in just 20 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • ½ cup garlic aioli
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Wrap Assembly

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 4 large tortillas


Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with garlic aioli. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, mixing thoroughly to ensure the chicken is well coated.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay each large tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon an even amount of the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken mixture.
  3. Roll the wraps: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling, then roll tightly from one end to the other to encase the filling securely.
  4. Toast the wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down on the skillet and cook for about 2–3 minutes per side until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheddar cheese has melted inside.
  5. Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice each in half diagonally, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute garlic aioli with garlic mayonnaise if preferred.
  • For extra flavor, add some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro to the chicken mixture.
  • Use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas to make a healthier version.
  • If you want to prepare ahead, assemble the wraps and toast them just before serving.
  • Serve with a side salad or fresh veggies for a balanced meal.
