Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Chicken:
    • 2 chicken breasts (sliced thinly)
    • 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon pepper
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • Juice of 1 lemon
  • For the Wraps:
    • 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
    • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
    • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
    • Optional: Fresh vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, or jalapeños)
    • Optional: Sauces (ranch, barbecue, or hot sauce)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken:
    • In a bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
    • Add the chicken slices and coat well.
    • Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours for the best flavor.
  2. Cook the Chicken:
    • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Sauté the marinated chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through and golden brown.
    • Set aside and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
  3. Prepare the Tortillas:
    • Warm the tortillas slightly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
    • Spread a layer of cream cheese evenly over each tortilla.
  4. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Place a few strips of cooked chicken onto the cream cheese layer.
    • Add shredded cheese, and if desired, include fresh vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for crunch.
    • Drizzle with your choice of sauce (ranch, barbecue, or hot sauce) for extra flavor.
  5. Wrap and Serve:
    • Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly to form a wrap.
    • Slice each wrap in half and serve warm or at room temperature.
