Description
A quick and easy dinner option combining shredded chicken, garlic aioli, and melted cheddar cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (Use leftover or rotisserie chicken for convenience.)
- 1/2 cup garlic aioli (Store-bought or homemade.)
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (Can substitute with pepper jack for a spicy variation.)
- 4 large tortillas (Warm them before using to prevent tearing.)
- to taste salt and pepper (Use to season the chicken mixture.)
Instructions
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the garlic aioli. Season with a pinch of salt and a few cracks of black pepper. Taste and adjust with additional aioli if feeling dry.
- Lay a tortilla flat. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture down the center.
- Sprinkle about 1/4 cup cheddar over the chicken.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly from one end to the other.
Cooking
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil or butter. Place the wrap seam-side down and cook until golden, about 2 minutes.
- Flip and brown the other side for another 1–2 minutes while pressing gently with a spatula so the cheese melts.
- Remove, let rest for 1 minute, then slice in half and serve.
Notes
For a quicker finish, use an air fryer. These wraps can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge or frozen for later.
