Ingredients
  

For the Filling:
  • - 2-3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • - 1/4 cup softened cream cheese
  • - 2 tbsp mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
  • - 1.5 cups shredded cheddar & mozzarella blend divided
  • - 1 chopped green onion or 1 tbsp chives
  • - 1-2 tsp hot sauce
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
For Assembly:
  • - 4 large flour tortillas
  • - 1 tbsp melted butter
  • - 2-3 cloves minced garlic

Method
 

  1. Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine chicken, cream cheese, mayo/yogurt, 1 cup of cheese, green onion, and hot sauce. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix melted butter and minced garlic.
  3. Assemble: Lay a tortilla flat. Sprinkle ~2 tbsp cheese in the center. Top with 1/4 of the chicken filling, then another sprinkle of cheese.
  4. Fold: Fold the left and right sides in. Tightly roll the wrap from the bottom up to create a sealed parcel.
  5. Cook: Lightly brush the outside of each wrap with garlic butter. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden-brown and crispy. Cover the pan for the last few minutes to melt the cheese perfectly.

Notes

 
  • The chicken filling can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • To reheat and maintain crispiness, use a skillet or an air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Avoid the microwave.
  • Feel free to use low-carb or gluten-free tortillas to fit your dietary needs.
