  3. Add a splash of milk or cream for a silky consistency.
Assembling the Wraps
  1. Lay out your tortilla on a clean surface.
  2. Spread a generous layer of the creamy garlic sauce.
  3. Add shredded chicken and sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.
  4. Roll the tortilla tightly, ensuring no filling escapes.
Cooking the Wraps
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  2. Cook each wrap seam-side down for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
  3. Flip and repeat on the other side for a delightful crunch.

Notes

To lighten the wraps, use whole-grain tortillas and low-fat cheese. These wraps pair well with garlic-parmesan fries or a crisp Caesar salad.
