Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder

3/4 cup warm water

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup canned green chilies, drained and finely chopped

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin (optional)

Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Sour cream or Greek yogurt, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Flatbread Dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until well combined. Create a well in the center, then pour in the warm water and olive oil. Stir with a spoon or spatula until a shaggy dough begins to form.

    Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for approximately 5 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Once kneaded, cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, allowing it to rest for about 15 minutes to relax the gluten.

      Prepare the Filling: While the dough rests, in a separate mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the shredded sharp cheddar cheese with the chopped green chilies and ground cumin (if using). Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed, ensuring a consistent filling.

        Roll Out the Flatbreads: After the resting period, divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball. Using a rolling pin, roll each ball out on a floured surface into a circle about 1/4-inch thick, ensuring a uniform thickness for even cooking.

          Cook the Flatbreads: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place one rolled-out flatbread in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly puffed. Remove the cooked flatbread and repeat with the remaining portions of dough.

            Assemble the Wraps: Once all flatbreads are cooked, take each flatbread and place a generous tablespoon of the cheese and chili filling on one half. Gently fold the other half over to enclose the filling, creating a half-moon shape.

              Melt the Cheese: Return the folded wraps to the skillet, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side to allow the cheese inside to melt and the wraps to heat through.

                Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and garnish each with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves. Serve warm alongside a bowl of sour cream or Greek yogurt for dipping, enhancing the flavor experience.

                    Presentation Tips: For a beautiful display, serve the wraps on a large platter, and drizzle some olive oil over the top while garnishing with cilantro for a fresh touch. Consider adding sliced jalapeños for an additional spicy kick!
