Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/3 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons garlic butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Optional: Fresh parsley or chopped green onions for garnish
Preparation
Step 1: Prepare the Filling
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Mix until everything is evenly combined and the cream cheese coats the chicken.
Step 2: Assemble the Wraps
- Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- Spoon about 1/4 of the chicken mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
- Fold in the sides, then roll the tortilla tightly to form a wrap.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Step 3: Toast the Wraps
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush the outside of each wrap with melted garlic butter.
- Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Flip and cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes.
Step 4: Serve
- Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them cool slightly.
- Slice each wrap in half if desired, and garnish with parsley or green onions before serving.
Tips for Success
- Chicken Options: Use rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken, or any leftover cooked chicken.
- Melting Cheese: Cover the skillet with a lid while toasting the wraps to help the cheese melt faster.
- Garlic Butter: For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder or Parmesan cheese over the melted butter before brushing.
Variations
- Spicy Version: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or drizzle with hot sauce for a spicy kick.
- BBQ Twist: Swap the garlic butter for barbecue sauce and use smoked cheddar for a BBQ-style wrap.
- Veggie Option: Add sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers to the chicken mixture for extra texture and flavor.
