This crave-worthy recipe is easy to make and ideal for lunch, dinner, or a hearty snack, offering a delightful twist on classic flavors that everyone will love.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Fresh lettuce leaves (optional garnish)
  • Hot sauce or favorite dipping sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by cooking the chicken breasts thoroughly, either by grilling, boiling, or baking. Once cooked, shred the chicken into small, manageable pieces. For more flavor, you can also use leftover roasted chicken.
  2. In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended. Then, fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese for that irresistible cheesy goodness.
  3. Lay a large flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the garlic cheese mixture over the center of the tortilla. Top with shredded chicken and add fresh lettuce if desired for extra crunch and freshness.
  4. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from one end to the other, ensuring the filling stays secure inside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  5. For a warm, melty finish, you can grill the wraps in a skillet over medium heat or toast them in a panini press until golden and crispy. Slice in half and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of fresh vegetables.

Notes

  • If you prefer a spicier version, add some hot sauce or red pepper flakes to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Use grilled or rotisserie chicken for a quick and convenient option.
  • For a healthier twist, swap out flour tortillas for whole wheat or lettuce wraps.
  • Feeling extra cheesy? Top your wraps with additional shredded cheese and melt under a broiler before serving.
