2. Savory Chicken Wrap Ingredients: What Youโ€™ll Need

To create these delightful **chicken wraps**, gather the following ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked and diced chicken (a great way to use leftover roast chicken!)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (for that pungent kick in our savory chicken wraps)
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced (any color works!)
  • 1 cup chopped lettuce (iceberg, romaine, or your favorite variety)
  • 1 cup sliced tomatoes (Roma or cherry tomatoes are excellent)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (full-fat or low-fat, your choice)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (adds richness to the **garlic cream sauce**)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (brightens the sauce)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)

3. Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Savory Chicken Wraps

Step 1: Sautรฉ the Chicken and Vegetables for Optimal Flavor

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sautรฉ for about 30 seconds until fragrant โ€“ that garlicky aroma is the first hint of the deliciousness to come! Then, add the diced chicken and sliced bell pepper. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through and the peppers are tender-crisp. The sautรฉed chicken forms the heart of our **savory chicken wraps**.

Step 2: Prepare the Fresh Vegetables โ€“ Add Crunch and Vibrance

While the chicken is cooking, take some time to chop the lettuce and slice the tomatoes. Set these aside in separate bowls. These fresh veggies not only provide essential nutrients but also add a delightful crunch and vibrant color to your **savory chicken wraps**. Consider adding other vegetables too; the possibilities are endless!. Have you tried our Cabbage bread recipe?

Step 3: Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: The Star of the Show

Now for the magic! In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. This luscious **garlic cream sauce** is what truly elevates these **savory chicken wraps**, so donโ€™t skimp on the flavor!

Step 4: Assemble Your Delicious Savory Chicken Wraps

Time to bring it all together! Lay a large tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous dollop of the creamy garlic sauce over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Layer on the sautรฉed chicken and vegetables, followed by the fresh lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Drizzle with a bit more of that irresistible garlic cream sauce. Now carefully roll up the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, to create a perfectly portable and utterly delicious **savory chicken wrap**.

4. Savory Chicken Wrap Storage Tips for Freshness

If you find yourself with leftovers (though we doubt you will!), the best way to store these **chicken wraps** is to wrap them individually in foil or plastic wrap. This prevents them from drying out and helps maintain their shape. Store them in the refrigerator and aim to consume them within 2-3 days for optimal freshness. For an even better experience, you can store the chicken filling and garlic cream sauce separately from the tortillas. This keeps the tortillas from getting soggy and allows you to assemble fresh **savory chicken wraps** whenever youโ€™re ready.

5. Serving Suggestions for Savory Chicken Wraps

These **savory chicken wraps** are incredibly versatile and can be served with a variety of sides. For a quick and easy meal, pair them with your favorite potato chips or a simple side salad. If youโ€™re looking to add a bit more substance, consider serving them with fresh fruits or a creamy coleslaw. A sprinkle of shredded cheese or an extra drizzle of garlic cream sauce can elevate the flavor profile even further! You could also share your creations and get inspiration from others on this Facebook group. If you want to change the recipe, you can first try the chicken bread recipe.
