Instructions

Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, then toss in diced chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, and oregano. Cook until golden and juicy.
If using vegetables, sauté them in the same skillet until tender.
In a bowl, mix cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, and cream cheese (if using) to create a cheesy blend.
Warm tortillas and lightly brush with garlic butter.
Layer chicken mixture and cheese blend inside each tortilla. Fold tightly into wraps.
Cook wraps in a skillet until golden and crispy on both sides. Slice and serve hot.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free tortillas. To meal prep, store chicken and cheese separately, then assemble and grill when ready. Freeze ungrilled wraps for up to 2 months and reheat in a skillet or air fryer for best results.
