Description

These Grilled Garlic Chicken Wraps are a quick and delicious meal featuring tender cooked chicken mixed with garlic, creamy mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and a touch of hot sauce, all wrapped in warm tortillas with melted cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Perfect for a satisfying lunch or dinner ready in just 20 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Wraps and Filling

  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 green onion, chopped

Cooking

  • Olive oil spray or 1 tablespoon olive oil


Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken mixture: Place the cooked chicken in a bowl and add the minced garlic, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, hot sauce, and salt. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface and sprinkle a thin layer of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese across the lower third of the tortilla.
  3. Add the filling: Spoon half of the chicken mixture over the cheese layer, then add another layer of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese followed by some chopped green onion for freshness and flavor.
  4. Roll the wraps: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward to enclose the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom up to form a secure wrap. Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
  5. Prepare the skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with olive oil spray or a tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking and help crisp the tortillas.
  6. Grill the wraps: Place the wraps seam-side down in the heated skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, pressing gently to ensure the tortillas turn golden brown and crispy and the cheese inside melts perfectly.
  7. Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice each in half diagonally for easy handling, and serve warm for the best taste experience.

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken leftovers or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce to control the spice level.
  • Whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas can be substituted to suit dietary preferences.
  • To enhance flavor, you can add a sprinkle of smoked paprika or chili flakes in the chicken mixture.
  • Serve with a side of fresh salad or dipping sauce like ranch or sour cream for extra indulgence.
