Delicious and creamy Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps featuring shredded chicken mixed with a blend of cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, and spices, wrapped with fresh spinach and tomatoes inside warm, crispy tortillas. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, these wraps are pan-seared to golden perfection with melted mozzarella cheese inside.

Ingredients

Filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken, softened cream cheese, sour cream, minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the chicken is evenly coated and the mixture is creamy and well-blended.
  2. Warm the tortillas: Lay out the four large flour tortillas on a flat surface. If they feel stiff, warm them slightly in the microwave or on a skillet to make them pliable and easier to roll.
  3. Assemble the wraps: Evenly divide the cheesy chicken filling among the four tortillas, spreading it down the center of each. Top each with fresh spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, and, if using, chopped fresh parsley 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 edge up to secure all ingredients inside, ensuring no filling escapes during cooking.
  5. Cook the wraps: Heat about one tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled wraps seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until the tortillas turn golden brown and crispy, and the mozzarella cheese inside melts to a gooey consistency. Remove from skillet when done.

Notes

  • Warming the tortillas before assembly prevents cracking during rolling.
  • For a spicier twist, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling mix.
  • Fresh parsley is optional but adds a nice herbaceous note.
  • Leftover wraps can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in a skillet for best texture.
  • Use whole wheat tortillas to increase fiber content.
