Ingredients

Preparing your ingredients is the first step to delicious wraps!
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, garlic butter (or minced garlic), mayonnaise (or cream cheese), parsley (or Italian seasoning), salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.
- Lay out the large tortillas on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of the chicken mixture on each tortilla, leaving space around the edges.
- Roll the tortillas tightly into wraps, tucking in the sides as you go to ensure the filling stays inside.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down and lightly toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melty.
- Remove from the pan and slice in half before serving. Enjoy your cozy meal!
Tips & Variations
- Ingredient Substitutions: You can swap out the chicken for cooked turkey or even a plant-based meat alternative. For a lighter option, try Greek yogurt instead of mayo.
- Optional Variations: Add veggies like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition. For a spicy kick, include chili flakes or jalapeños in the filling.
- Storage or Reheating Tips: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can reheat them in a pan over low heat for a few minutes or use a microwave if you’re short on time.
