Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (240 g)
½ cup garlic aioli (120 ml)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (120 g)
4 large tortillas (10-inch / 25 cm)
Salt & black pepper, to taste
Instructions
In a bowl, mix shredded chicken with garlic aioli. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Lay one tortilla flat. Spoon the chicken mixture down the center.
Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Fold in the sides, then roll tightly from the bottom up.
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the wrap seam-side down. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cheese is melted.
Slice diagonally and serve warm.
Notes
Warm tortillas briefly to make folding easier.
Try different cheeses—pepper jack for spice, mozzarella for stretch.
Add shredded lettuce, cucumber, or veggies after cooking for crunch.
Garlic aioli can be swapped with ranch, buffalo sauce, or pesto.
Assemble ahead, refrigerate up to 24 hours, then pan-fry when ready.
