  **Yields:** 4 wraps

  **Prep time:** 15 minutes

  **Cook time:** 15-20 minutes

  Ingredients

  Scale 1x2x3x

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 4 low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps

  Optional Toppings

  • Fresh spinach or lettuce

  • Sliced tomatoes

  • Avocado slices

  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt

  • Chopped parsley

  Instructions

  Cook the Chicken:** Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are no longer pink inside and cooked through. This usually takes about 7-10 minutes.

  2. **Add the Flavor:** Stir in the minced garlic (or garlic powder), Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. **Melt the Cheese:** Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the cooked chicken. Stir gently until the cheese is melted and gooey, coating the chicken beautifully.

  4. **Warm the Tortillas:** Briefly warm the tortillas. You can do this by placing them one at a time in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side, or wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for about 20-30 seconds. This makes them nice and pliable.

  5. **Assemble the Wraps:** Lay a warm tortilla flat. Spoon about a quarter of the cheesy chicken mixture down the center. Add any optional toppings like lettuce or tomatoes.

  6. **Roll ‘Em Up!** Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up snugly from the bottom.

How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

Follow these simple steps to prepare this delicious meal.

Cook the Garlic Chicken

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the shredded chicken, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally so the chicken absorbs the flavors.

Add the Cheese

Sprinkle the mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the warm chicken mixture.

Allow the cheese to melt and mix gently until the chicken becomes creamy and cheesy.

 Warm the Wraps

Heat the low-carb tortillas in a pan or microwave for a few seconds so they become soft and easy to fold.

If you prefer an even lower-carb option, use large lettuce leaves instead of tortillas.

Assemble the Wraps

Place a portion of the cheesy garlic chicken in the center of each tortilla.

Add your favorite toppings such as:

• lettuce

• tomatoes

• avocado

• sour cream

Fold the sides of the wrap and roll tightly.

Toast the Wraps (Optional)

For extra texture, place the wraps in a skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until lightly golden and crispy.
