- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Prepare the chicken mixture: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the cooked chicken, salt, black pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to combine and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until heated through.
- Make the creamy sauce: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice until smooth and well combined.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay the tortillas flat and spread a layer of the creamy sauce over each one. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top, then add shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes.
- Roll and crisp the wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly into a wrap. Place the wraps seam side down in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the wraps are golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Serve: Slice the wraps and serve warm for best flavor and texture.
