Ingredients:
For the chicken:
- 1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into strips
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the wraps:
- 4 large flour tortillas (or flatbreads)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh spinach or lettuce leaves
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)
- 2 tbsp plain yogurt or sour cream
Garnish (optional):
- Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
- Extra garlic sauce or chili sauce
Step-by-Step Directions:
- Prepare the chicken:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken strips, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook until chicken is golden brown and cooked through (about 6–8 minutes). - Warm the tortillas:
While the chicken cooks, warm the tortillas in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds. This makes them soft and easy to fold. - Assemble the wraps:
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise and yogurt (or sour cream) on each tortilla. Layer with spinach or lettuce leaves, followed by cooked chicken strips. - Add the cheese:
Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar over the hot chicken so it melts slightly. Add sliced red onions for crunch. - Fold and seal:
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly into a wrap. For extra crispiness, you can lightly toast the wrapped tortilla in a skillet until golden. - Serve and enjoy:
Slice each wrap in half, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm with garlic sauce, chili sauce, or even ketchup if you like! 🌿🔥
