Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Wraps
- 4 large tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, and chopped fresh parsley. Mix all ingredients well until fully incorporated to create a creamy and flavorful filling.
- Season the Mixture: Add salt and pepper to the chicken mixture according to your taste preferences and mix again to evenly distribute the seasonings.
- Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the large tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the chicken and cheese mixture onto each tortilla, spreading it out but leaving room at the edges for rolling.
- Roll the Tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly around the filling to create wrapped cylinders, ensuring the filling stays inside.
- Heat the Skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and add the tablespoon of olive oil, heating it until shimmering but not smoking.
- Pan-Fry the Wraps: Place the wrapped tortillas seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, turning carefully until the outside is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese inside is melted and gooey.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice as desired, and serve warm for the best ooey-gooey experience.
