Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (or use rotisserie chicken)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 handful baby spinach (optional)
For Wrapping and Cooking
- 4 large low-carb tortillas or wraps
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the skillet and warm tortillas: Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add olive oil. While the skillet heats, warm the low-carb tortillas for 10-15 seconds in the microwave, covered with a damp paper towel to prevent cracking.
- Mix the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. If using baby spinach, add it now. Mix everything thoroughly so the cream cheese evenly coats all ingredients.
- Assemble the wraps: Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the four tortillas, placing about 1/2 cup of filling in the center of each. Roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you roll to form secure wraps that hold their shape.
- Cook the wraps: Place each wrap seam-side down into the preheated skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side without moving them, until the wraps turn golden brown and the cheese inside has melted and is slightly oozing out the edges.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and slice each in half diagonally. Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
- Warming the tortillas before rolling helps prevent cracking while folding.
- Baby spinach is optional but adds a fresh, healthy touch.
- Cook wraps seam-side down first to help seal them during cooking.
- For extra crispiness, use a grill pan or nonstick skillet.
