Quick and flavorful low carb wraps filled with juicy chicken, melted cheese, and garlic, perfect for busy nights or meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breast, thinly sliced or shredded (about 3 cups cooked)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (or olive oil)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (optional for color)
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (or 1/2 teaspoon vinegar)
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella (melts well)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar (adds sharp flavor)
  • 4 low carb tortillas (8-inch) or 8 large lettuce leaves
  • Optional: red pepper flakes, 1–2 tablespoons cream cheese for extra creaminess

Instructions

  1. Slice chicken thinly (or shred cooked chicken). Pat dry. In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, paprika, and onion powder.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add butter (or oil). Stir in minced garlic; cook 20–30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle the spice mix on top. Cook, stirring, until chicken is cooked through and lightly golden, 5–7 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add lemon juice and parsley. Toss to coat. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
  5. Warm low carb tortillas in a dry pan 15–20 seconds per side (or prep lettuce leaves). Mix mozzarella and cheddar in a bowl.
  6. Assemble: Place tortillas on a board. Add chicken, then the cheese blend (and a spoon of cream cheese if using). Fold sides in and roll. Return wraps to the skillet seam-side down; cook 1–2 minutes per side until the cheese melts and the outside is lightly crisp. (For lettuce wraps, skip the skillet and serve right away.)
  7. Finish with extra parsley or red pepper flakes. Slice in half and serve warm. Add a squeeze of lemon or a simple yogurt ranch on the side if you like.

Notes

For extra melt, cover the skillet for 30–45 seconds. Store cooked chicken and cheese mix in separate airtight containers for up to 3 days.
