Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 2 cups cooked shredded or chopped chicken
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup softened cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried

Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas

Garlic Butter

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

Optional

  • Baby spinach
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Sliced tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, shredded mozzarella, cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and chopped parsley. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated and the mixture becomes creamy and cohesive.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spoon about a quarter of the prepared filling into the center of each tortilla. If you prefer, add optional vegetables such as baby spinach, shredded lettuce, or sliced tomatoes for added freshness. Fold the sides of each tortilla inward and tightly roll them from the bottom up to form secure wraps.
  3. Brush with garlic butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and minced garlic thoroughly. Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the outside of each wrap to infuse them with rich flavor and help achieve a golden, crispy exterior when toasted.
  4. Toast the wraps: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place each wrap seam-side down on the skillet to prevent them from unrolling. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the wraps are golden brown, crisp, and the cheese inside has fully melted.
  5. Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice each one in half, and serve warm. These wraps pair excellently with dipping sauces such as ranch dressing or garlic aioli for an extra burst of flavor.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling mixture.
  • Use cooked rotisserie chicken as a convenient shortcut.
  • Wraps can be prepared in advance and toasted just before serving for optimal freshness.
  • Substitute flour tortillas with whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to suit dietary preferences.
  • To keep wraps warm while toasting multiple batches, cover them loosely with foil.
