Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 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
- Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Season the filling: Add salt and pepper to taste into the mixture and stir again to evenly distribute the seasoning.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly divide the chicken and cheese mixture onto each tortilla, spreading it across the center.
- Roll the wraps: Tightly roll each tortilla around the filling to form a secure wrap, ensuring the filling stays inside while cooking.
- Heat the skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and add one tablespoon of olive oil, allowing it to heat until shimmering but not smoking.
- Cook the wraps: Place each wrap seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside has melted.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet. Slice them in half if desired, and serve warm for the best cheesy, garlicky experience.
Notes
- You can substitute cooked chicken with rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle some red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning into the filling.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the wraps from sticking and to reduce the amount of oil needed.
- To keep wraps warm before serving, place them in a low oven (around 200°F) wrapped in foil.
- These wraps can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated; cook just before serving.
