# Instructions:
01 -
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
02 -
Add the shredded chicken to the skillet along with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika (if using). Stir well to combine and heat the chicken through, about 2 minutes.
03 -
Reduce heat to medium-low and add the softened cream cheese to the chicken mixture. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is completely melted and well incorporated with the chicken.
04 -
Stir in the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses until melted and the mixture is creamy and well combined. Remove the skillet from heat.
05 -
If using parsley, stir it into the chicken and cheese mixture. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
06 -
Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean work surface. Divide the cheesy chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas, spreading it in a line across the center of each tortilla.
07 -
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly to form wraps, ensuring the filling is completely enclosed.
08 -
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Mix well.
09 -
Preheat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush the outside of each wrap with the garlic butter mixture and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
10 -
Place the wraps seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside is melted.
11 -
Remove from the skillet, let cool for 1-2 minutes, then slice each wrap in half diagonally. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Using rotisserie chicken makes this recipe even quicker to prepare.
02 -
For extra flavor, add a pinch of Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture.
03 -
You can customize these wraps by adding vegetables like sautéed spinach, diced bell peppers, or caramelized onions.
04 -
Whole wheat or spinach tortillas work well as substitutes for the flour tortillas.
