Ingredients

You don’t need fancy stuff — just these basics!

2 cups cooked shredded or chopped chicken
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup softened cream cheese
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried
4 large flour tortillas
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Optional: Baby spinach, shredded lettuce, or sliced tomatoes

Directions

Getting these cheesy delights ready is as simple as 1-2-3! Follow these steps:

In a mixing bowl, combine chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, mozzarella, cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and parsley. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Lay tortillas flat. Spoon 1/4 of the filling into the center of each. Add optional veggies if desired.
Fold the sides inward, then roll tightly from the bottom to form wraps.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic. Brush the outside of each wrap with this mixture.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each wrap seam-side down for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp, and cheese is melted inside.
Slice each wrap in half and serve warm with a dipping sauce.
