Low Carb Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
These easy and satisfying wraps combine tender chicken, gooey cheese, and zesty garlic, all wrapped in a low-carb tortilla, making them a delicious family-approved dinner option.
Ingredients
For the filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or rotisserie) Using rotisserie chicken makes this recipe quicker.
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Can be substituted with other cheese types.
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Feel free to mix and match cheeses.
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/4 cup cream cheese (softened) Can be substituted with Greek yogurt.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil For coating the pan.
- 4 large low-carb tortillas or wraps Other low-carb options like coconut wraps or egg-based wraps can be used.
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped) For garnish and flavor.
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1 handful baby spinach (optional) To add extra veggies.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and coat with olive oil.
- Warm the tortillas for about 10-15 seconds in the microwave, covered with a damp paper towel to prevent cracking.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella, cheddar, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. If you're adding spinach, toss it in now and mix until well coated.
- Divide the chicken mixture among the four tortillas (about 1/2 cup each), placing it in the center.
- Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides to keep the filling secure.
Cooking
- Place the wraps seam-side down in the preheated skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melty.
- Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them in half diagonally, and serve hot. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
Notes
These wraps are customizable with different cheeses and veggies. Store leftovers in an airtight container and consume within 2-3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave.
