Featuring tender shredded chicken, melty cheese, and fragrant garlic, these wraps are easy to make and endlessly customizable for family meals or meal prep.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (great leftover or rotisserie chicken)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella)
  • 4 large flour tortillas or wraps
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp butter or olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (for dipping, optional)

Instructions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter or heat olive oil. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Stir in the shredded cooked chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes to infuse garlic flavor. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread some garlic chicken mixture across the center, then sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and chopped herbs if desired.
  4. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  5. Fold the sides of each tortilla tightly over the filling, then roll from bottom to top to secure.
  6. Cook in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes or in an air fryer for crispy exterior. Alternatively, grill on a panini press for 2-3 minutes per side for extra crispiness.
  7. Serve immediately with dips like sour cream or ranch, or alongside a fresh salad.

Notes

  • Use freshly shredded cheese for the best gooey cheese pull.
  • Wrap tightly to prevent unrolling during cooking; secure with toothpicks if necessary.
  • For a crispier wrap, grill on a panini press or stovetop grill for 2-3 minutes per side.
