Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 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
Wraps and Toppings
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Mixture: 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 smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute and spread the chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla.
- Add Fresh Vegetables: Top the chicken mixture on each tortilla with fresh spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions for added flavor and texture.
- Roll the Wraps: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to the top to form a secure wrap.
- Optional Skillet Crisping: If you prefer a warm and crispy wrap, heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and cook each side for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for convenience and extra flavor.
- To make this recipe healthier, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
- Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers or cucumbers for extra crunch.
- For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free tortillas.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, increase the minced garlic to 3 cloves.
- Wraps can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator without skillet crisping; heat before serving.
