Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 2 cups cooked shredded or chopped chicken Can use rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste Salt and black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese Can substitute with cheese variety of choice.
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup softened cream cheese Can substitute with Greek yogurt or sour cream.
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried
Assembly
  • 4 large flour tortillas Whole wheat tortillas can be used for a healthier option.
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • optional Baby spinach, shredded lettuce, or sliced tomatoes For extra freshness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper with the mozzarella, cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and parsley. Mix until you have a creamy, cohesive filling.
  2. Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spoon 1/4 of the chicken filling into the center of each tortilla. Add any optional vegetables if you like.
  3. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom to form a wrap.
Cooking
  1. In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic. Brush the outside of each wrap generously with this mixture.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each wrap seam-side down for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp, ensuring the cheese inside is melted.
  3. Slice each wrap in half and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch or garlic aioli.

Notes

Store leftovers tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or foil in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze before toasting. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
