Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wraps
- 4 large tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, olive oil, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, ensuring an even spread but leaving space at the edges for rolling.
- Roll the Wraps: Tightly roll each tortilla into a wrap, keeping the filling sealed inside to prevent spilling during cooking.
- Heat the Skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and allow it to warm up for a minute or two.
- Cook the Wraps: Place the wraps seam-side down on the heated skillet to seal them. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside has melted.
- Serve: Remove the cooked wraps from the skillet, slice them if desired, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use any shredded cheese of your choice such as cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend for different flavor profiles.
- For extra heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños to the chicken mixture.
- The wraps can be prepared in advance and cooked just before serving for convenience.
- Serve with a side of fresh salad or salsa for a complete meal.
- Leftover wraps can be reheated in the skillet or microwave, although skillet reheating keeps them crispier.
