Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken, diced or shredded
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Wraps
- 4 large tortillas
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter, for toasting
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and chopped fresh parsley if using. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well blended and the mixture is creamy.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken and cheese mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Spread the filling slightly but leave some space around the edges. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly into a wrap to enclose the filling completely.
- Toast the Wraps: Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place each wrap seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the underside is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip each wrap using a spatula and toast the other side for an additional 2 minutes or until golden and heated through.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the toasted wraps from the skillet and let them cool briefly before slicing each wrap in half. Serve warm on their own or paired with a fresh salad or your favorite dipping sauce for a complete meal.
Notes
- Use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- Feel free to customize the cheese with mozzarella or pepper jack for different flavors.
- Fresh parsley is optional but adds a nice brightness to the filling.
- For extra crispiness, press the wraps lightly with a spatula while toasting.
- Wraps can be kept warm in a low oven if making multiple batches.
