**Yields:** 4 wraps
**Prep time:** 15 minutes
**Cook time:** 15-20 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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.
