Cheesy garlic chicken wraps

Ingredients

For the chicken:

2 chicken breasts, cubed

1 tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the wraps:

4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat)

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack)

Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato slices, avocado, bell peppers, spinach, or caramelised onions

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the chicken

In a medium bowl, toss the cubed chicken with olive oil, minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Set aside.

Step 2: Cook the chicken

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and lightly golden on the edges. Remove from heat.

Pro Tip: Deglaze the pan with a splash of lemon juice or white wine after cooking for extra flavour.

Step 3: Assemble the wraps

Lay tortillas on a clean surface. Divide the cooked chicken evenly among them, placing it in the centre. Add shredded cheese and any optional toppings.

Step 4: Warm the wraps

Heat in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes per side until warm and the cheese melts

OR

Microwave each wrap for about 20–30 seconds

Step 5: Roll and serve

Fold in the sides, roll tightly into a wrap, and cut in half if desired. Serve immediately with ranch dressing, salsa, or hot sauce.
