Low-Carb Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps

Ouadie Rhabbouron

Instructions

  1. Season the Chicken: Pat the chicken strips dry with a paper towel. Place them in a bowl and season with salt, pepper, and the dried oregano. Toss to coat evenly.

  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through.

  3. Add the Garlic: Reduce the heat to low. Push the chicken to one side of the skillet. Add the minced garlic to the empty space and cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it. Then, toss the garlic with the chicken to combine.

  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay the low-carb tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly divide the cheesy garlic chicken mixture among the tortillas, placing it in a line down the center. Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the chicken.

  5. Fold and Toast the Wraps (Two Methods):

    • Skillet Method (Recommended for Crispiness): Wipe out the skillet or use a new one and place it over medium heat. Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. Place the wrap seam-side down in the dry, heated skillet. Toast for 2-3 minutes per side, until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.

    • Oven Method (For Multiple at Once): Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Assemble the wraps and place them seam-side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the tortillas are crisp and the cheese is melted.

  6. Serve: Let the wraps cool for a minute before slicing them in half diagonally. Serve immediately with a side of warm marinara sauce for dipping if desired.

Chef's Tips & Variations

  • Prevent Soggy Wraps: The key is to not overfill the tortillas and to toast them in a dry skillet, which crisps them up without making them greasy.

  • Cheese Choices: Feel free to use a blend of cheeses. Italian blend, provolone, or a mix of mozzarella and parmesan would all be delicious.

  • Add Veggies: Sauté some sliced mushrooms or spinach in the skillet with the garlic for an extra nutrient boost.

  • Creamy Version: For a richer filling, stir 2 tablespoons of cream cheese or a splash of heavy cream into the chicken and garlic mixture before adding the mozzarella.

  • Spice it Up: Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes along with the garlic for a spicy kick.
