Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 4 large tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté the Garlic: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until it’s heavenly and fragrant. Pro tip: Don’t walk away; burnt garlic is not your friend!
- Heat the Chicken: Toss the cooked chicken into the skillet, seasoning it with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly to coat and heat through—about 3-4 minutes should do the trick!
- Make the Cheese Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and half of your shredded cheese. Mix until it’s smooth and creamy—just like that cozy feeling from your favorite blanket!
- Combine Everything: Now for the fun part! Take the skillet off the heat and blend the chicken with the cheesy mixture, ensuring everything is well combined.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out your tortillas and divide the chicken mixture evenly among them. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top, then fold the sides over and roll them up tightly.
- Cook the Wraps: Heat a clean skillet (or a grill pan if you’re feeling fancy) over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown and the cheese melts. Extra crispy, extra cheesy—who could resist?
Notes
- If you want to spice things up, feel free to add some chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture for a little heat!
- In a pinch? Use store-bought garlic sauce instead of minced garlic for simplicity. Easy peasy!
- Don’t worry if your wraps look a bit lumpy before rolling; it’s all part of the delicious process!
