To make these cheesy garlic chicken wraps, start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This heat helps melt the cheese just right. Next, heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Once it’s hot, add minced garlic and cook it for one minute. It should smell great but not burn. Now, season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, oregano, and smoked paprika. This adds flavor. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side. Make sure the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, reaching 165°F (75°C) inside. After cooking, let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Slice it into thin strips. In a medium oven-safe dish, layer the sliced chicken evenly on the bottom. Then, sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the chicken. Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes. You want the cheese to melt and bubble. This step makes the wraps extra cheesy and tasty. While the chicken bakes, prepare your tortillas. Lay each one flat on a clean surface. Add a handful of mixed greens to the center of each tortilla. Then, place a few halved cherry tomatoes on top for a fresh burst of flavor. Once the cheesy chicken is ready, take it out of the oven. Layer the cheesy chicken strips over the greens and tomatoes in each tortilla. Drizzle ranch dressing or your favorite sauce on top. Fold in the sides of the tortillas and roll them up tightly from the bottom. This keeps all the tasty filling inside. Arrange the wraps on a platter, and for a nice touch, cut each wrap in half at a slight angle to show off the gooey cheese. To get juicy chicken, start with good seasoning. Use salt, pepper, and herbs like oregano. Sear the chicken on medium heat to lock in moisture. Cook until the inside reaches 165°F. Letting it rest for a few minutes helps keep juices in. Slice it thin for easy wrapping. For gooey cheese, use fresh mozzarella. Shredded cheese melts better, so sprinkle it on right before baking. Bake at 375°F for about 10 minutes. Look for bubbly, golden edges to know it's just right. This brings out the cheese's flavor and makes your wraps extra delicious. Presentation makes a big difference. Arrange the wraps on a platter and cut them in half to show off the filling. Add halved cherry tomatoes for color. A bowl of ranch dressing on the side invites dipping. Fresh herbs like parsley or basil can brighten the dish. For more ideas, check the full recipe! {{image_4}} You can easily make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps healthier. I love using whole wheat tortillas. They add more fiber and nutrients. You can also add extra veggies to boost the nutrition. Try adding spinach, bell peppers, or zucchini. These veggies not only taste great but also add color and crunch. Want to change the flavor? You can switch up the spices and sauces. Add some cayenne pepper for heat or use garlic powder for extra garlic flavor. Try a sprinkle of Italian herbs for a new twist. For sauces, you can replace ranch with barbecue or hot sauce. Each option gives a different taste experience. If you prefer a meat-free meal, I have great ideas. You can replace chicken with grilled portobello mushrooms or chickpeas. Both options are hearty and filling. Add in some roasted vegetables for added flavor and texture. With these swaps, you still get a delicious wrap without the meat. For the full recipe, check the detailed instructions provided. Enjoy experimenting with these variations! To keep your cheesy garlic chicken wraps fresh, store them in an airtight container. Place parchment paper between layers if you stack them. This helps avoid sogginess. Store in the fridge for up to three days. If you plan on keeping them longer, consider freezing them. When you want to enjoy your leftovers, heat them in the microwave for about 30 seconds. If you prefer a crispy wrap, use an oven or toaster oven. Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and heat for about 10 minutes. This warms them nicely and melts the cheese again. To freeze your wraps, wrap each one tightly in plastic wrap. Then place them in a freezer bag. They can last up to three months in the freezer. When you’re ready to eat, take them out and thaw in the fridge overnight. Heat as mentioned above for the best taste. For the full recipe, refer to the instructions above. Yes, you can make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps in advance.

Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 large flour tortillas (whole wheat for a healthier option)

1 cup mixed greens (a blend of lettuce, spinach, and arugula)

½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved

¼ cup ranch dressing or your choice of sauce

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for the cheesy goodness.

    In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, stirring constantly until it becomes fragrant but not burnt.

      While the garlic is cooking, season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, freshly ground black pepper, oregano, and smoked paprika for an extra kick. Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C) and golden brown on the outside.

        Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing it into thin, bite-sized strips.

          In a medium oven-safe dish, layer the sliced chicken evenly across the bottom, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is perfectly melted and bubbly.

            While the chicken is baking, prepare the tortillas by laying them flat on a clean surface. Add a handful of mixed greens to the center of each tortilla, followed by a few halved cherry tomatoes for a pop of color and flavor.

              Once the cheesy chicken is ready, retrieve it from the oven and layer the cheesy chicken strips over the greens and tomatoes in each tortilla, ensuring an even distribution.

                Finish the wraps by drizzling ranch dressing or your favorite sauce over the cheesy chicken. Carefully fold in the sides of the tortillas, then roll them up tightly from the bottom to secure all the filling inside.

                  Arrange the wraps on a serving platter and for a delightful touch, cut each wrap in half at a slight diagonal to beautifully showcase the gooey, cheesy filling.

                      - Presentation Tips: For an appealing presentation, garnish the platter with extra halved cherry tomatoes and a small bowl of ranch dressing on the side for dipping. Consider adding fresh herbs like parsley or basil for a splash of color and a hint of freshness!
