Ingredients

For the chicken:

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the cheese sauce:

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste

For assembly:

1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (for garnish)
4 large tortillas

Instructions

Step 1: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Season the diced chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

Step 2: Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes until golden and fully cooked.

Remove from skillet and set aside.

Step 3: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Sauté minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Step 4: Gradually add milk, whisking constantly, and cook until the sauce thickens (3-4 minutes).

Stir in mozzarella and cheddar cheese until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 5: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Lay the tortillas flat and divide the cooked chicken evenly among them.

Roll each tortilla tightly and place seam-side down in a baking dish.

Step 6: Pour the creamy cheese sauce over the wraps, ensuring they are generously coated.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese sauce is bubbly and slightly golden.

Step 7: Garnish with additional shredded cheddar cheese, if desired. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

FAQs

1. Can I use pre-cooked chicken?

Yes, using pre-cooked or rotisserie chicken can save time.

Simply skip the seasoning and cooking steps and proceed with the cheese sauce.

2. Can these wraps be made ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the wraps and refrigerate them (without pouring the sauce) for up to 24 hours.

Pour the sauce and bake when ready to serve.

3. Can I freeze leftovers?

Wrap leftovers tightly in foil or plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven for best results.

4. What variations can I try?

Add veggies like sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrients.

Swap out tortillas for flatbreads or pita if preferred.

5. How do I prevent the wraps from getting soggy?

Lightly toast the tortillas before assembling for a firmer texture, or use less sauce when coating the wraps.
