4.1 from 5 reviews

These Garlic Chicken Wraps are a delicious, quick, and satisfying meal perfect for lunch or dinner. Tender, garlic-infused chicken breasts are sautéed to a golden brown, then combined with fresh spinach and sharp cheddar cheese inside low-carb tortillas. A tangy sour cream and Dijon mustard sauce adds the perfect creamy finish before the wraps are crisped under the broiler for a melty, slightly crunchy texture.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for sautéing)

Wrap Fillings

  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 4 low-carb tortillas

Sauce

  • 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat and season: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper on both sides to bring out their natural flavor.
  2. Sauté garlic: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until it’s fragrant but not browned, about 1-2 minutes, to infuse the oil with flavor.
  3. Cook chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for approximately 6 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Rest and slice chicken: Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes to retain juices. Then slice the breasts into thin strips.
  5. Build wraps: Lay out each low-carb tortilla and evenly distribute the fresh spinach, sliced chicken, and shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Prepare sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream and Dijon mustard until smooth. Drizzle this sauce over the layered fillings on each tortilla.
  7. Roll and broil: Roll up each tortilla tightly to enclose the fillings. Place the wraps on a baking sheet and put them under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the edges become crispy. Watch closely to avoid burning.

Notes

  • To keep the chicken moist, avoid overcooking; use a meat thermometer if possible (internal temperature should reach 165°F / 74°C).
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the garlic while sautéing.
  • You can substitute the low-carb tortillas with whole wheat or gluten-free options as preferred.
  • Serve immediately after broiling for the best texture and flavor.
