Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tbsp butter (melted)

Cheese Mixture

  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (divided)
  • ¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
  • ¼ cup sour cream

Wraps

  • 4 large tortillas
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Sauté garlic: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but avoid browning the garlic to keep the flavor mild and sweet.
  2. Add chicken and seasonings: Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, then sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook until the chicken is heated through and well coated with the seasonings, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Prepare cheese mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine chicken and cheese mixtures: Mix the seasoned chicken into the cheese mixture until thoroughly combined, ensuring each piece of chicken is coated with the cheesy blend.
  5. Assemble wraps: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface and evenly distribute the chicken and cheese mixture onto each one. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll the tortillas tightly into wraps.
  6. Cook wraps: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam side down and cook 2-3 minutes per side until the tortillas turn golden brown and the cheese inside melts, pressing gently to seal them.
  7. Serve: Remove wraps from the skillet and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Try using a combination of mozzarella and cheddar for extra flavor complexity.
  • For a spicy kick, add some red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to alter the recipe to dietary needs.
  • Leftover wraps can be wrapped in foil and reheated in a skillet or oven for a quick meal.
