1) Can I make Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps ahead of time?

Yes, but for best results store the filling separately and roll right before cooking. If you pre roll them, keep them tightly wrapped and toast before serving.

2) What if I only have pre shredded cheese?

That is totally fine. Fresh shredded melts a bit smoother, but pre shredded still tastes great in this recipe.

3) How do I keep the wrap from opening while toasting?

Roll it tight and always start cooking seam side down first. Give it a minute to seal before flipping.

4) Can I use garlic from a jar?

Yep. Use a little less than fresh since jarred garlic can taste stronger and slightly different. Garlic powder also helps round out the flavor.

5) What is the best way to make it less garlicky?

Use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic, and start with a small amount. You can also add more lemon juice or Greek yogurt to mellow it out.

Preparation

Dice or shred cooked chicken and set aside.
In a bowl, mix your sauce base (mayo/Greek yogurt with minced garlic/lemon juice).

Assemble Wraps

Lay out a tortilla and spread a portion of the filling over the middle.
Add extra cheese and any optional vegetables on top.
Fold in the sides and roll tightly from the bottom up, seam side down.

Cooking

Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little butter or oil.
