How to Make Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
Step 1: Prep & Cook the Chicken
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil.

- Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the Cheesy Filling
- In a bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella, cheddar, parsley, and chives. Mix until creamy and well blended.
- Stir in the cooked chicken and garlic until everything is evenly coated and ooey-gooey.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

- Fold the sides over, then roll up tightly. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Step 4: Toast and Serve
- Mix melted butter and garlic powder together and brush over each wrap.
- Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese inside is melted.

Notes & Helpful Cooking Tips
- For juicier chicken, marinate the diced breasts in a tablespoon of olive oil and your favorite herbs for 1 hour before cooking (learn how to marinate chicken).
- Swap in rotisserie or leftover shredded chicken to save time on busy nights.
- Lightly crisping the wraps under a broiler adds even more crunch—keep an eye out so they don’t burn (broiling tips).
