Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

  1. Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface.
  2. Place a layer of cooked chicken on each tortilla, then drizzle with the garlic sauce.
  3. Top with a handful of spinach or lettuce for a fresh crunch, and sprinkle with extra cheese if desired.

Step 4: Roll & Serve

  1. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the edges to secure the filling.
  2. Optionally, you can toast the wraps in a pan for about 2-3 minutes on each side to get a crispy golden exterior.
