How to Make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

  1. Prepare the Chicken: If you haven’t done so yet, cook and shred the chicken. This can be done in advance for a quicker wrap assembly.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with garlic aioli. Season with salt and pepper, mixing until well combined. This adds flavor to your chicken.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture onto the tortilla and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  4. Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Make sure the filling is securely enclosed.
  5. Heat the Wrap (Optional): If you prefer a warm wrap, place it seam-side down in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook until the outside is golden and the cheese inside melts, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
