Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
Ingredients
Method
- Cook the Garlic Chicken
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with paprika, black pepper, salt, chili flakes (if using), and oregano. Continue cooking until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
- Prepare the Cheese Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella, cheddar cheese, cream cheese (or mayonnaise), and chopped parsley. Add the cooked chicken and mix well until everything is evenly coated and creamy.
- Assemble the Wraps
- Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture into the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Toast the Wraps
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. The cheese should be completely melted inside.
- Serve
- Allow the wraps to rest for one minute before slicing in half. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Avoid overfilling the wraps to prevent tearing.
Toast over medium heat to achieve a crispy exterior while allowing the cheese to melt.
Let the wraps rest for one minute before cutting to keep the filling intact.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Reheat in a skillet or air fryer for the best texture.

Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Cook the Garlic Chicken
Warm Olive oil or butter in a pan on medium color. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, just until fragrant, making sure it does not burn.
Place the chicken in the pan and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt, black pepper, paprika, chili flakes and oregano. Bake until the chicken is done and slightly golden.
Switch off the heat and leave the chicken to cool down a bit.
Step 2 Resetting the Cheesy Filling
Add mozzarella, cheddar and cream cheese (or mayonnaise) to a mixing bowl together with chopped herbs. Cooked chicken may be added and then stirred until all is well coated.
The combination must be creamy, cheesy and thick enough not to fall apart in the wrap.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Prepare a flat tortilla on a table. Spoon the chicken-cheese mixture in large quantities over the center. Roll the sides in, and wrap it up tight. Do the same with the rest of the tortillas.
Step 4: Toast Until Golden
Pre-heat a non-stick pan in medium heat and grease it with a little butter or oil. Lay the wraps with seam-side down and then toast 2-3 minutes per side until it is golden and crispy. The cheese within it is not to be thick.
Take out of pan and allow to cool down a minute and then slice.
