Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 2 boneless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Dairy and Wrap

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil: Warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat to prepare for cooking the chicken.
  2. Cook the chicken and garlic: Add the sliced chicken breasts, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked through and no longer pink inside, about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Prepare the tortillas: Spread about 2 tablespoons of sour cream evenly on each large flour tortilla, creating a creamy base for the filling.
  4. Assemble the wraps: Distribute the cooked chicken evenly over the sour cream layer on each tortilla, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  5. Fold the wraps: Fold each tortilla over the filling to form a secure wrap, ensuring the ingredients are enclosed.
  6. Melt the cheese: Heat the assembled wraps in a pan over low to medium heat or microwave them until the cheese melts and everything is heated through, which should take about 2-3 minutes in a pan or 1-2 minutes in a microwave.
  7. Serve: Remove the wraps from heat and serve immediately while hot and gooey.

Notes

  • You can use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
  • Add chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for extra flavor.
  • For a spicier version, sprinkle some red chili flakes or hot sauce inside the wrap.
  • Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure safety.
  • If you prefer, you can bake the assembled wraps at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to melt the cheese instead of pan or microwave heating.
