Description
These Low Carb Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are bursting with flavor, featuring tender chicken, gooey cheese, and aromatic garlic wrapped in a low-carb tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 bell pepper, sliced (any color)
- 1 small onion, sliced
- Low-carb tortillas (2-4, depending on how hungry you are!)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Fresh herbs (basil or cilantro) for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté for about 3–4 minutes until they’re translucent.
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Toss in the bell peppers and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they soften yet retain a bit of crunch.
- Add the shredded chicken to the skillet, stir everything together and let it heat through for about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the chicken mixture, allowing it to melt slowly, and mix gently.
- Lay a low-carb tortilla flat, spoon a generous portion of the cheesy chicken mixture in the center, and fold it over tightly.
- Return the skillet to heat, add more olive oil if needed, and place each wrap seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the wraps from the skillet, let them cool slightly, and then slice in half.
Notes
Serve with a side of fresh salad or slow-simmered gazpacho. Drizzle melted cheese or a dollop of sour cream for dipping.
