Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Chicken

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed chicken and cook for 6–7 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked through. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 2: Add Fresh Garlic

Stir in minced garlic during the last minute of cooking. Cook until fragrant but not burnt.

Step 3: Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce

In a bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, and parsley. Adjust with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Assemble the Wraps

Lay a tortilla flat, spread garlic sauce, top with chicken, cheddar, and mozzarella.

Step 5: Toast the Wraps

Fold tightly and place seam-side down in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cheese melts.

Step 6: Serve Hot

Slice diagonally and serve immediately while warm and cheesy.
