Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Veggie Toppings

  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Wraps & Cooking

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a creamy, flavorful filling.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the four tortillas, placing the filling in the center of each to allow room for folding.
  3. Add fresh toppings: Top each portion of chicken mixture with fresh spinach leaves and diced tomatoes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired to enhance freshness and flavor.
  4. Roll the wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling securely, forming a compact wrap ready for cooking.
  5. Cook the wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Place wraps seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crisp. Flip and cook the opposite side for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the wraps are heated through and crispy on all sides.
  6. Serve: Remove wraps from skillet and let rest for a minute. Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve warm for the best melty, cheesy experience.

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken leftovers or rotisserie chicken for quick assembly.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps.
  • The cream cheese should be softened to blend smoothly with other ingredients.
  • Add extra veggies like bell peppers or onions for added crunch.
  • Serve with a side of salsa or guacamole for dipping.
  • Wraps can be prepared ahead of time and grilled just before serving.
