How to Make Cheesy Chicken Egg Crunch
Step 1: Cook the eggs
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat a non-stick pan with a bit of butter and cook the eggs gently, scrambling them until just set and soft. Set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the filling
In the same pan, add a small drizzle of oil and sauté the chopped onion and green chili until soft.
Add the shredded chicken and sprinkle with paprika or chili flakes. Cook for a minute, just to warm it through. Mix in the scrambled eggs. Stir in half the cheese and cook until it begins to melt into the mixture.
Step 3: Assemble the crunch wrap
Lay out the tortilla or flatbread. Spoon the chicken-egg-cheese filling into the center. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
Fold the edges of the tortilla inward to seal the filling (like a burrito or square parcel).
Step 4: Toast until crispy
Heat a clean pan over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil, place the folded wrap seam-side down, and toast for 2–3 minutes until golden and crisp. Flip and toast the other side.
Press lightly with a spatula for even browning and crunch.
Serving Suggestions
Slice in half and serve hot, with ketchup, spicy mayo, or hot sauce. You can also pair it with a side salad or fries for a fuller meal.
Cheesy Chicken Egg Crunch is satisfying, gooey, and crisp all at once. It’s the kind of dish that’s fast to make but feels like a treat—perfect when you want something filling, fun, and full of flavor.
