Ingredients
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup garlic aioli
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wrap Assembly
- 4 large tortillas
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Mix Chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken with the garlic aioli. Season the mixture generously with salt and pepper, then stir well to evenly coat the chicken with the aioli and seasoning.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay out each large tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the chicken and aioli mixture on each tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken filling.
- Wrap: Carefully fold each tortilla tightly around the filling, making sure to fold in the sides first and then roll to enclose all the filling securely.
- Grill: Heat a skillet over medium heat on the stovetop. Place each wrapped tortilla seam side down to prevent unrolling. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crisp, and the cheese inside is melted.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them in half if desired, and serve warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute chicken breast or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- Use your favorite tortillas such as whole wheat or gluten-free if preferred.
- For extra flavor, add some chopped fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley to the chicken mixture.
- Serve with a side salad or chips for a complete meal.
- If garlic aioli is unavailable, mayonnaise mixed with minced garlic works as a good substitute.
