Ingredients
  

Filling Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded) Use warm, shredded rotisserie chicken to cut prep time.
  • 1/2 cup garlic aioli Can substitute with plain mayonnaise mixed with minced garlic.
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded) Grate your own for better melt and flavor.
  • 4 large tortillas Toast briefly before assembling for extra sturdiness.
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the garlic aioli until well coated. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture down the center of the tortilla.
  3. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar over the chicken on each tortilla.
  4. Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.
Cooking
  1. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat (add a little butter or oil if desired). Place the wrap seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and the cheese is melted.
  2. Alternatively, use a panini press for 3–4 minutes.
Serving
  1. Let the wraps rest for 1 minute, then slice in half and serve warm with a simple side like mixed greens, slaw, or kettle chips.

Notes

Refrigerate wrapped and cooled wraps for up to 3-4 days. Rewarm in a skillet or a 350°F oven for best results. Not ideal for freezing due to aioli texture change.
