Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 4 large tortillas (flour or whole wheat)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Optional Add-Ins
- Sautéed vegetables (bell peppers, onions, or spinach)
- Hot sauce or salsa
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, sautéed garlic, softened cream cheese, and shredded cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken and cheese mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll from the bottom up to create a tight wrap. Repeat with all tortillas.
- Cook the Wraps: Wipe the skillet clean and return it to medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them cool for a minute. Slice in half, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for convenience or grill fresh chicken breasts for a homemade touch.
- Warm tortillas before assembling for easier wrapping and to prevent tearing.
- Do not overfill to avoid difficulty in wrapping.
- Optional vegetables and hot sauce can add flavor and nutrition.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days or freeze ungrilled wraps for up to 2 months.
