Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie or leftover roasted chicken work great)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese, cheddar or mozzarella Cheddar for tang, mozzarella for stretch
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, minced (about 4 cloves) Mince finely for best flavor
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 pieces low carb tortillas
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional: parsley, cilantro, or chives)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
  2. When the oil shimmers, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 to 45 seconds until fragrant; don’t let it brown.
  3. Add the shredded chicken. Season with salt and pepper and stir to coat in the garlicky oil. Cook until heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the shredded cheese immediately so the residual heat melts it into the chicken.
  5. Lay the tortillas flat. Divide the cheesy chicken filling down the center of each tortilla.
  6. Fold the sides in, then roll tightly to secure the filling. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs if you like.

Notes

These wraps are perfect on their own, dipped in a yogurt-based sauce, or paired with a crisp salad. For a Mediterranean twist, serve with a cucumber-tomato salad and tzatziki.
