How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wrap Recipe

Preheat your oven to 350°F and roast whole garlic bulbs drizzled with olive oil, salt, and pepper until golden and soft. Mash the roasted cloves into a flavorful paste.

In a skillet, melt butter and stir in the mashed garlic, then pour in heavy cream, chicken powder, and optional herbs. Simmer until slightly thickened, then season to taste.

Fold shredded rotisserie chicken into the creamy garlic sauce, coating it generously. Spoon the chicken mixture onto a warmed flour tortilla, then sprinkle liberally with cheddar and mozzarella.

Wrap tightly, tucking in the sides neatly. Brown the wrap in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat until crispy and the cheese inside is melted and gooey.

Serve hot, slice if desired, and enjoy the ultimate cheesy, garlicky bliss.

Tasty Tips & Fun Twists for Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wrap Recipe

For an extra kick, try adding a pinch of crushed red pepper or a splash of hot sauce to the creamy garlic mixture. If you prefer a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for half the cream. Experiment with different cheese blends like pepper jack for a spicy twist or gouda for a smoky touch. Always warm your tortilla before filling to prevent cracking, and don’t forget—the roasted garlic is non-negotiable for the full flavor explosion.

Storing and Reheating Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps Like a Pro

If you have leftovers, store the wraps unbrowned in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. When ready to eat, brown them fresh in a skillet for that perfect crispy exterior. You can also freeze the wraps individually; just thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating. To reheat, warm in a pan over medium-low heat to maintain crispness and melty cheese goodness.

Prep Time 10 minutes mins

Cook Time 45 minutes mins

Total Time 55 minutes mins

Ingredients

  

• 1 cup shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese
• 2 bulbs garlic
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3 large flour tortillas
• 2 tablespoons roasted garlic
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon chicken powder
• Thyme and parsley optional
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Carefully slice the tops off the garlic bulbs to expose the cloves, drizzle them with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and place them in a mini cocotte or wrap in foil; roast for approximately 30 minutes until soft and golden, then set aside to cool. Once cooled, squeeze the roasted cloves into a bowl and mash them into a paste. In a small pot or skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, then stir in the mashed roasted garlic. Pour in the heavy cream, incorporate the chicken powder, and add thyme and parsley if desired; allow the sauce to simmer gently for 4 to 5 minutes until it begins to thicken slightly. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, then fold in the shredded chicken, ensuring it is thoroughly coated and warmed through. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean work surface, spoon the creamy chicken mixture into the center, and generously sprinkle the shredded cheeses over the top. Roll the tortilla tightly from the bottom upwards, ensuring the filling is enclosed securely. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat; place the wrap seam-side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until the wrap is crisp and golden, and the cheese inside is beautifully melted. Remove from the skillet, slice in half if preferred, and serve piping hot.

Notes

Opt for large tortillas to better contain the filling.

Warm tortillas prior to filling for easier handling and folding.

Avoid overfilling to maintain wrap integrity.

Allow the sauce to cool slightly before assembling to prevent sogginess.

Freshly shredded cheese enhances melt quality and flavor.

Use a nonstick skillet over moderate heat for an evenly crisped wrap without burning.

A combination of cheddar and mozzarella offers an ideal cheesy stretch.

When meal prepping, store the filling and tortillas separately to preserve texture.

Roasting the garlic is essential to achieving the signature flavor of this wrap.

A light drizzle of additional garlic sauce over the finished wrap elevates it to perfection.
