Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded Rotisserie or leftover roast chicken works great.
  • 1 cup shredded cheese Cheddar for bite or mozzarella for stretch.
  • 1/4 cup garlic, minced About 3–4 cloves; adjust to taste.
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise Can substitute Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
Wraps
  • 4 large tortillas or wraps
  • 1/2 cup lettuce, shredded Iceberg or romaine.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded cheese, minced garlic, mayonnaise, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until well blended.
  2. Lay a tortilla flat and place one quarter of the chicken mixture in a line down the center. Top with a small handful of shredded lettuce.
  3. Tuck the bottom edge over the filling, fold the sides in, then roll tightly to form a snug wrap. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a teaspoon of olive oil. Place a wrap seam-side down to seal it; press gently with a spatula.
  2. Cook each side until golden brown and the cheese is melty, about 2–3 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest 1 minute, slice in half on the diagonal, and serve warm.

Notes

Best served warm and cut in half or into thirds for appetizers. Store leftover wraps in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days. Wraps are best frozen without fresh lettuce.
