Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Chicken Filling:

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon paprika
Salt & pepper to taste

4 large flour tortillas
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella (or your favorite cheese blend)

Substitutions:

Step-by-Step Instructions

Sauté the garlic: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add chicken & seasoning: Stir in shredded chicken, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes to heat through and infuse flavors.
Assemble the wraps: Lay out tortillas. Spoon the garlic chicken mixture onto one half of each tortilla. Top with shredded cheeses.
Fold and press: Fold each tortilla in half over the filling. Press down gently.
Grill to golden perfection: Melt butter in a clean skillet over medium heat. Grill each wrap for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
Serve & enjoy: Cut in halves or thirds, sprinkle with herbs, and dig in while warm!
