# What You Need:

02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
04 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
05 - 1 teaspoon dried oregano
06 - ½ teaspoon salt
07 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper
→ For the Wraps
08 - 4 large low-carb tortillas or wraps (gluten-free if needed)
09 - 1 cup (3.5 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese
10 - ½ cup (1.75 oz) shredded cheddar cheese
11 - 1 cup fresh baby spinach leaves
12 - ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
13 - 1 medium tomato, diced
→ For the Garlic Sauce
14 - ¼ cup (2.1 oz) Greek yogurt
15 - 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
16 - 1 small clove garlic, finely minced
17 - 2 teaspoons lemon juice
18 - Salt and pepper, to taste
# How-To Steps:
01 - In a medium bowl, combine the chicken strips with olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
02 - Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and lightly golden. Remove from heat and set aside.
03 - In a small bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
04 - Lay out each low-carb tortilla. Sprinkle a quarter of the mozzarella and cheddar cheese in the center of each wrap.
05 - Top the cheese with a quarter of the cooked chicken, spinach, red onion, and diced tomato. Drizzle with garlic sauce.
06 - Fold in the sides and roll up each wrap tightly to enclose the filling.
07 - For a crispy exterior, place wraps seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1–2 minutes per side to crisp and melt the cheese.
08 - Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately while warm.
# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- Every bite delivers that perfect combo of savory chicken, gooey cheese, and fresh crunch without weighing you down
- They come together in under 30 minutes but taste like you put way more thought into dinner
02 -
- Dont skip the optional pan-searing step at the end because it transforms the texture and makes the cheese melt into every layer
- Low-carb tortillas can dry out faster than regular ones, so roll them quickly and dont overfill or they will crack
03 -
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking so the juices redistribute instead of running out when you cut into the wraps
- If your tortillas are stiff, microwave them between damp paper towels for 15 seconds before rolling
