Ingredients

Why this recipe works

The key to these wraps is the contrast between the crispy tortilla and the creamy filling. Toasting the assembled wraps in butter creates a golden, crunchy exterior that holds up to the rich sauce and melted cheese.

The high heat quickly browns the tortilla while the cheese inside melts to a gooey, stretchy consistency. This method ensures every bite has a satisfying crunch.

Searing the chicken before wrapping adds depth of flavor and ensures the meat is fully cooked and juicy. Seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika gives the chicken a savory, smoky taste that complements the Alfredo sauce.

Cooking the chicken in avocado oil, which has a high smoke point, allows for a good sear without burning.

Notes and substitutions

Use a good-quality garlic Alfredo sauce, either homemade or store-bought. The sauce should be thick enough to hold its shape when spread on the tortilla. If the sauce is too thin, it can make the wraps soggy. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.

Large flour tortillas (10-inch) work best for wrapping. Warm them briefly in a dry skillet to make them pliable and prevent cracking. For a lower-carb option, use low-carb tortillas, but note that they may not crisp up as well. Shredded mozzarella melts beautifully, but you can substitute provolone or fontina.
