Ingredients
Scale
Cheesy Garlic Chicken Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Wraps
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Melt the Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat to prepare a rich base for the garlic and chicken.
- Sauté Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, infusing the butter with delicious garlic flavor.
- Add Chicken: Stir in the shredded cooked chicken and combine it well with the garlic-butter mixture.
- Season: Sprinkle Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper over the chicken mixture, stirring thoroughly to evenly distribute the seasonings.
- Melt Cheese: Add the shredded mozzarella cheese into the skillet, mixing continuously until it melts and blends with the chicken to create a gooey, cheesy filling.
- Prepare Wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface and evenly divide the cheesy chicken mixture among them.
- Wrap: Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom tightly to form a secure wrap.
- Cook Wraps (Optional): For a warm, golden finish, place each wrap seam-side down back into the skillet and toast over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side until crisp and golden brown.
- Slice and Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice them in half, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant, fresh touch before serving.
Notes
- Using cooked chicken saves time; rotisserie chicken works great.
- Optional to toast wraps for added crispiness and flavor.
- Substitute mozzarella with cheddar or a cheese blend for variation.
- Add vegetables like spinach or roasted red peppers for extra nutrition.
- Serve with a side of salsa, sour cream, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
