Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or leftover)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. - Assemble the Wraps
Lay out the tortillas. Add shredded chicken and cheese to the center of each one. Drizzle or brush a little garlic butter over the filling, then roll tightly. - Toast the Wraps
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Brush the outsides lightly with more garlic butter for extra flavor. - Serve and Enjoy
Cut in half, sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce — ranch, marinara, or garlic aioli all work perfectly.
Tips & FAQs
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! Assemble the wraps and store in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
What cheese works best?
Mozzarella gives a gooey melt, while cheddar adds sharp flavor. Mix both for the best of both worlds.
Can I add veggies?
Absolutely — spinach, caramelized onions, or roasted peppers taste amazing in these wraps.
