Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Wrap Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is creamy and evenly blended.
  2. Assemble the wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Evenly spread the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla, ensuring each gets an equal portion of the filling.
  3. Add fresh toppings: Top each portion of chicken mixture with fresh spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions for added freshness and flavor.
  4. Roll the wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom up to form a compact wrap, securing the filling inside.
  5. Optional grilling: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the tortillas turn golden brown and crispy, helping to melt the cheese inside.
  6. Serve: Remove from heat and slice each wrap in half diagonally. Serve warm to enjoy the full flavors and melty cheese.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps or lettuce leaves.
  • Adding a bit of hot sauce or crushed red pepper flakes can give the wrap a spicy kick.
  • You can prepare the chicken filling ahead of time and refrigerate for up to 2 days for easier meal prep.
  • To keep the wraps warm and crispy, grill them just before serving.
  • Use fresh mozzarella or other cheese varieties like cheddar or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.
