How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wrap (Step-by-Step)

1. Sauté the Garlic

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Be careful not to burn the garlic — it can turn bitter very quickly!

2. Heat the Chicken

• Add the cooked chicken to the skillet.
• Season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
• Stir well to coat the chicken evenly and heat through.

3. Mix the Cheeses

• In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese.
• Mix until smooth and creamy.

Tip: Make sure your cream cheese is room temperature for easier mixing!

4. Combine the Chicken and Cheese Mixtures

• Remove the skillet from heat.
• Add the seasoned chicken to the cream cheese mixture.
• Stir until everything is fully combined.

5. Assemble the Wraps

• Lay out the tortillas.
• Divide the cheesy chicken mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla.
• Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
• Fold in the sides and roll up tightly.

6. Cook the Wraps

• Heat a clean skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
• Place the wraps seam-side down.
• Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Tip: Press down gently with a spatula to help seal the wraps and create a perfect crisp finish!
