How to Serve and Store

Ingredients

For the Wraps

4 large tortillas
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Feel free to customize with your favorite fillings!

Instructions

Prep the Filling

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in shredded chicken and season with salt and pepper.

Cook until heated through.

Assemble the Wraps

Lay a tortilla flat and scoop some of the chicken mixture onto the center. Top with a generous handful of shredded cheese. Fold the sides over and roll tightly.

Cook the Wraps

In the same skillet, add the wrapped tortillas seam-side down. Cook until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes each side. Remove and slice in half to serve.

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Perfect Pairings

To complement your Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps, consider serving them with a fresh salad. A simple mix of greens, tomatoes, and a light vinaigrette can provide a refreshing contrast to the richness of the wraps. Additionally, a side of guacamole or salsa can enhance the flavor profile, adding creaminess or spice to every bite.

For drink options, pair these wraps with a chilled beverage. A light beer or a crisp white wine can balance the flavors beautifully, making your meal feel more special. If you prefer non-alcoholic drinks, a sparkling lemonade would be a refreshing choice to cut through the creaminess of the cheese.

Nutritional Insights

These wraps can be a nutritious option, especially when you choose high-quality ingredients. Use whole grain tortillas for added fiber and vitamins, and opt for lean grilled chicken to keep the dish light yet protein-packed. With cheese, you get calcium and flavor, but be mindful of portion sizes to maintain a balanced diet.

To make it healthier, consider sneaking in some veggies like spinach, bell peppers, or even mushrooms. This not only enhances the nutritional value but also adds vibrant colors and flavors to the dish. Adjusting the fillings can help cater to various dietary needs, making it easier to enjoy a wholesome meal with family and friends.
