  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 2 wraps

Ingredients

– 2 large tortillas (regular or low-carb/high-protein)

– 7 oz cooked chicken, chopped (about 200 grams)

– 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated (adjust to taste)

– 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise

– 1 tablespoon light Greek yogurt or plain yogurt

– 2 teaspoons hot sauce

– ΒΌ teaspoon salt

– 3 oz grated cheese (about 90 grams, cheddar or a blend)

– 1 green onion, chopped

– Olive oil spray

Instructions

1-Gather and Prep Your Ingredients: Begin with trimming and slicing your chicken for even cooking. For this recipe, mix the chopped chicken with garlic, mayonnaise, yogurt, hot sauce, and salt in a bowl. Let it sit for a moment to blend the flavors, which takes about 15 minutes of prep time overall.

2-Cook the Filling: Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and spray with olive oil. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until they’re golden and crispy. Cover the pan to help melt the cheese and warm the filling quickly, which cuts down on cook time to just 7 minutes total.

3-Assemble and Serve: Lay out a tortilla, sprinkle cheese on the lower third, add the chicken mixture, more cheese, and green onion. Fold the sides in and roll tightly from the bottom. Slice in half and serve hot for a complete meal in about 22 minutes. For variations, you can adapt this to fit dietary needs, like using plant-based options.

4: Trim and pat dry the chicken, slice into strips, and marinate with oil, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper for 10 to 20 minutes as described. For an alternative, try searing in a single layer for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Lower heat, add cheese, and cover to melt it in 1 to 2 minutes.

5: Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or oven, spread the mixture, add greens, and roll tightly. For a pressed finish, grill in a pan for 1 to 2 minutes per side. This step ensures everything stays secure and crispy, making your flavorful cheesy chicken wrap recipe even better.
