# Instructions:
01 -
Cut 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast into 1/2-inch cubes. In a small bowl, combine 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional), salt, and black pepper. Season the chicken generously with this blend, preparing it for your Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps You’ll Devour.
02 -
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside, leaving any drippings in the pan.
03 -
Reduce heat to medium. Add 5 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in 4 oz softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup milk, 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, and 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cheeses are melted and smooth.
04 -
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the cheesy garlic sauce. Stir well to coat all the chicken evenly. This creates the irresistible filling for your Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps You’ll Devour. Taste and adjust salt and black pepper as needed.
05 -
Lay out 8 large (8-10 inch) flour tortillas. Divide the chicken and cheese mixture evenly among the tortillas, placing it slightly off-center. Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly from the bottom to create secure wraps.
06 -
Heat a clean, dry skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the assembled wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is extra melty and ooey-gooey. This step is key for the best Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps You’ll Devour.
07 -
Remove the toasted wraps from the skillet. Garnish with 1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley and 2 thinly sliced green onions. Serve immediately and prepare to devour these delicious wraps!
# Notes:
01 -
Feel free to swap chicken breast for boneless, skinless chicken thighs for an even juicier filling. Just adjust cooking time slightly.
02 -
These wraps are fantastic on their own, but also pair wonderfully with a fresh green salad or a side of your favorite salsa for dipping.
03 -
Leftover wraps can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or oven for best results.
04 -
For an extra kick, increase the 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or add a dash of hot sauce to the cheesy mixture.
