Inside, there is a layer of grilled chicken pieces that are light beige with a slight char and a firm texture. Mixed with the chicken is a melted layer of orange-yellow cheese that looks creamy and gooey, stretching slightly between the two halves.

Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper (to taste)
2 tbsp butter (melted)
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
¼ cup sour cream
4 large tortillas
Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

Step 1: In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Step 2: Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, then sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook until the chicken is heated through and well coated with the seasonings.
Step 3: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of the shredded cheese. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Mix the seasoned chicken into the cheese mixture until thoroughly combined, ensuring the chicken is well coated with the cheesy sauce.
Step 5: Lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the chicken and cheese mixture onto each one. Top with the remaining shredded cheese, then fold and roll the tortillas tightly into wraps.
Step 6: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese inside melts.
Step 7: Remove the wraps from the skillet and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm for the best taste.

Tips & Variations

Use rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
Swap mozzarella for pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick.
Add chopped spinach or bell peppers for extra veggies.
For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free tortillas.

Storage

Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave until warm and the cheese is melted. For best texture, reheat in a skillet to keep the tortilla crispy.
