Garlic butter or garlic spread
-
Flour tortillas or wraps
-
Shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
-
Optional: spinach, tomatoes, ranch, or hot sauce
Preparation
Step 1: Prepare the tortillas
Lay out the flour tortillas on a flat surface. Spread a generous layer of garlic butter or garlic spread on one side of each tortilla.
Step 2: Add the filling
On the opposite side of the tortilla, layer the cooked chicken and shredded cheese. Add optional ingredients like spinach, tomatoes, ranch, or hot sauce if desired.
Step 3: Fold the wrap
