Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken Rotisserie or leftover roasted chicken work well
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened Use low-fat to cut richness
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise Swap for Greek yogurt or sour cream if preferred
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Cheese and Tortilla
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas For gluten-free, choose large gluten-free tortillas or flatbreads
Final Touches
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Put the shredded chicken, minced garlic, softened cream cheese, and mayonnaise into a medium bowl.
  2. Add salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir until smooth and well combined. Taste and tweak the seasoning.
Assembly
  1. Lay the tortillas flat on your work surface. Spoon an even layer of the chicken mixture onto each, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  2. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar evenly over the filling on each tortilla.
  3. Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking the sides as you go. Press the seam to seal.
  4. Brush the outside of each wrap with melted butter. Sprinkle garlic powder and dried parsley over the buttered surface.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the bottom is golden and crisp.
  2. Flip and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the wrap is heated through.
Serving
  1. Transfer the wraps to a cutting board. Let them rest for 1 minute, then slice diagonally and serve warm.
