Tools You’ll Need

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Set aside.

Step 2: Assemble the Wraps
Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface.
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese down the center of each tortilla.
Top with shredded chicken.
Add any optional fillings like sautéed veggies or cooked bacon.

Step 3: Fold the Wraps
Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.

Step 4: Cook the Wraps
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Brush the outside of each wrap with the garlic butter mixture.
Place wraps seam-side down in the skillet.
Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden brown and the cheese inside is melted.

Step 5: Serve
Slice in half and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce like ranch, marinara, or garlic aioli.

Tips for Success
Use Medium Heat – Keeps the wraps crispy without burning the garlic butter.
Seal the Wraps Well – Tuck in the sides tightly to hold everything in.
Use Fresh Garlic – For the best, bold flavor.
Don’t Overfill – Makes wrapping and cooking easier.
Serve Immediately – For the ultimate melty cheese experience.
