Ingredients
Scale
Chicken & Cheese Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Garlic Butter
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Wraps
- 4 large tortillas
- Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté Garlic: Heat a pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until aromatic. Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can become bitter.
- Heat Chicken: Add the cooked chicken to the skillet with the garlic. Stir in garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly and heat until it simmers.
- Mix Cheeses: In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Combine Chicken and Cheese Mixtures: Remove the skillet from the heat and fold the cheese mixture into the cooked chicken until fully blended.
- Assemble Wraps: Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Divide the chicken and cheese mixture evenly among the tortillas, placing it in the center. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the filling. Fold the edges over the filling and roll the tortillas tightly into wraps.
- Cook Wraps: Preheat a clean skillet or pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the pan. Cook each side for about 2 minutes until golden brown and the cheese inside melts. Apply gentle pressure with a spatula to help brown evenly and seal the wraps.
Notes
- Use leftover rotisserie chicken for convenience and extra flavor.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
- Be careful not to burn garlic to avoid bitterness.
- Press gently on wraps while cooking to get even browning and prevent unrolling.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley for added color and freshness.
