Description
Tender, juicy chicken smothered in creamy garlic sauce, hugged by a warm tortilla and oozing melted cheese. A quick and comforting dinner ready in about 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (300g)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter (30g)
- 1 cup heavy cream (240ml)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (100g)
- 4 large tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional mix-ins: spinach, sautéed onions, diced tomatoes
Instructions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in 1 cup of heavy cream. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir 2 cups of shredded chicken into the sauce. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated and warmed through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Heat each tortilla in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds.
- Spoon the cheesy garlic chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with ¼ cup of shredded cheese per wrap. Add optional mix-ins like spinach or tomatoes, if desired. Fold in the sides and roll tightly.
- Place the rolled wraps back in the skillet or on a griddle over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Notes
[“Take your time sautéing the garlic to ensure it’s golden and not burnt.”, ‘Use room temperature chicken to prevent cooling down the sauce.’, ‘Avoid overstuffing the wraps to ensure they roll properly.’, ‘Crisping the wraps in a skillet or griddle adds a nice texture.’]
