Ingredients

  • 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
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, mayonnaise, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
  2. Step 2: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Spread an equal amount of the chicken mixture onto the center of each tortilla.
  3. Step 3: Top the chicken mixture with fresh spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions.
  4. Step 4: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top to form a wrap.
  5. Step 5: If desired, heat a skillet over medium heat and place the wraps seam-side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Step 6: Slice each wrap in half and serve warm.

Tips & Variations

  • For added flavor, try using smoked mozzarella or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture for some heat.
  • You can substitute spinach with kale or arugula for a different green twist.
  • To make it vegetarian, replace the chicken with cooked mushrooms or chickpeas.

Storage

Store any leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in a skillet or microwave until heated through. If you toasted the wraps initially, reheating in a skillet will help keep them crispy.

How to Serve

Three rolled tortillas with toasted brown spots are filled with pieces of grilled, golden-brown chicken. The chicken inside looks juicy and is covered in creamy white sauce that is dripping slightly out of each roll. A few small green herbs are visible on top of the tortillas. The tortillas are laid on a surface with a white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Yes, you can substitute mozzarella with cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a cheese blend that melts well to suit your taste.

Can I prepare these wraps ahead of time?

Absolutely. You can assemble the wraps and store them in the refrigerator for a few hours before heating and serving. Avoid adding the fresh spinach and tomatoes until just before serving to keep them crisp.
