Ingredients
Main 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
For Toasting
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter, for toasting
Special Equipment
- Non-stick skillet or grill pan
- Spatula for flipping wraps
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and parsley if using. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated 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 filling onto the center. Spread it out evenly, leaving about 1 inch around the edges. Fold in the sides, then roll up tightly to form a wrap. Repeat for all tortillas.
- Toast the Wraps: Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy, then flip and toast the other side for another 2 minutes.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice each in half if desired, and serve warm. Pair with a simple salad or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
Notes
- Use rotisserie or leftover chicken to cut down on prep time.
- Switch up the cheese—try mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
- Add sautéed peppers or spinach for extra veggies.
- Wraps can be made ahead and toasted right before serving for freshness.
- For a spicier kick, stir a pinch of chili flakes or a splash of hot sauce into the filling.
