Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make these cheesy chicken wraps:
- 2 cups cooked, diced chicken breast (rotisserie chicken works too)

- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 medium flour tortillas
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cook the garlic: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the chicken: Stir in the cooked chicken breast, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2–3 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay a tortilla flat. Add a generous scoop of garlic chicken, then sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top. Fold the tortilla tightly into a wrap. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Toast the wraps: Melt butter in a clean skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook until golden and crispy, 2–3 minutes per side.
- Serve & enjoy: Garnish with parsley and slice in half for that ooey-gooey cheese pull moment. Serve warm.

FAQ
Can I use a different cheese?
Yes! Mozzarella and cheddar are classic, but any melting cheese will work—try Swiss or Gouda.
Can I make these ahead of time?
You can prep and assemble the wraps ahead, then cook them just before serving for best results.
How do I reheat leftovers?
Reheat in a skillet or air fryer to keep the tortillas crispy. Avoid microwaving if possible—it makes them soggy.

Definitely. Place on a baking sheet, brush with butter, and bake at 375°F for 10–12 minutes.
Are these freezer-friendly?
Yes! Wrap individually in foil, freeze, and reheat in the oven for a quick grab-and-go meal.
