Ingredients

  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (approx. 500g), diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch diameter)
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • 0.25 cup mayonnais e
  • 0.25 cup sour cream
  • 1 clove garlic , finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for toasting

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the chicken is uniformly coated.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the edges are golden brown. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, minced garlic, and lemon juice to create the creamy garlic sauce base.
  • Briefly warm the tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to increase pliability and prevent tearing during assembly.
  • Lay each tortilla flat. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the garlic sauce across the center of each tortilla.
  • Distribute the cooked chicken evenly among the four tortillas, placing it over the sauce layer.
  • Top the chicken with a generous portion of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese blend.
  • Fold the left and right sides of each tortilla inward, then roll tightly from the bottom to create a secure wrap.
  • Clean the skillet and return to medium heat. Melt the butter in the pan.
  • Place the wraps seam-side down in the buttered skillet. Toast for 2-3 minutes per side until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted.
  • Remove from heat, let rest for 1 minute, and slice diagonally to serve.
