Ingredients

Scale

Wrap and Filling

2 large tortillas (regular or low-carb/high-protein)
7 oz cooked chicken, chopped (about 200 grams; rotisserie works great)
2 garlic cloves, minced or grated (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon light Greek yogurt or plain yogurt
2 teaspoons hot sauce (like Frank’s)
¼ teaspoon salt

Cheese and Garnish

3 oz grated cheese (about 90 grams; cheddar blend recommended)
1 green onion, chopped

Cooking

Olive oil spray

Instructions

Mix chicken filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped cooked chicken, minced garlic, light mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, hot sauce, and salt. Stir thoroughly to evenly coat the chicken and develop the flavorful filling.
Lay out wrap: Place one tortilla flat on a clean surface. On the lower third of the tortilla, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of grated cheese evenly. Then, spoon approximately ⅔ cup of the chicken mixture over the cheese layer. Add another tablespoon of cheese on top followed by a sprinkle of chopped green onion for freshness.
Fold wrap: Fold in the sides of the tortilla to enclose the filling. Then tightly roll the tortilla upwards from the bottom edge to form a secure wrap, ensuring the filling stays contained.
Prepare pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray the pan lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking and promote crispness.
Cook wraps: Place the wraps seam-side down on the heated pan to seal and crisp the wrap. Cook each side for about 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Cover the pan with a lid to help warm the filling through and melt the cheese inside.
Serve: Remove the wraps from the pan, slice each in half diagonally to showcase the melty interior, and serve hot for a deliciously satisfying meal.

Notes

You can use rotisserie or leftover cooked chicken for convenience.
Adjust the amount of garlic and hot sauce to your preferred spice level.
Low-carb or high-protein tortillas work well for a healthier option.
Covering the pan while cooking helps melt the cheese and warm the filling evenly.
Serve with a side salad or fresh veggies for a balanced meal.
Can be made ahead and reheated in a skillet or oven to retain crispness.
