Description

These Ooey-Gooey Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps are a deliciously cheesy and flavorful meal perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. Made with shredded chicken, mozzarella, cream cheese, and fresh garlic and parsley, these wraps are pan-seared until golden and crispy on the outside while remaining creamy and melty on the inside.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Wraps

  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Season the mixture: Add salt and pepper to the chicken mixture to taste, ensuring a well-balanced flavor.
  3. Assemble the wraps: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface and evenly distribute the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, spreading it out to cover the surface.
  4. Roll the tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly to form a wrap, making sure the filling stays inside.
  5. Heat the skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil, allowing it to warm up for about a minute.
  6. Cook the wraps: Place the wraps seam-side down in the heated skillet. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy.
  7. Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them if desired, and serve warm for an ooey-gooey cheesy experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute mozzarella with cheddar cheese for a sharper flavor.
  • For extra crispiness, press the wraps gently with a spatula while cooking.
  • Adding a bit of chopped spinach or roasted red peppers to the filling can add more texture and flavor.
  • Use low-carb tortillas if you want a lighter, low-carb version.
  • Cooked chicken can be leftover rotisserie chicken or freshly cooked chicken breasts shredded.
