Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Spatula or mixing spoon
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Non-stick skillet
- Measuring spoons
- Tongs or spatula for flipping
- Stove or hot plate
Ingredients
- ¼ cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter, for toasting
- 2 cups cooked chicken, diced or shredded
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 4 large tortillas
- ½ tsp onion powder

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine cooked chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and parsley if using, and stir until smooth and evenly mixed.
- Lay a tortilla flat and place a generous scoop of the filling in the center, spreading slightly but leaving space at the edges.
- Fold in the sides, then roll tightly into a wrap.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat, then place the wraps seam-side down and toast for 2–3 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes until crisp.
- Remove, slice in half, and serve warm.
Notes
- Warm tortillas slightly before filling to make them easier to roll without tearing.
- You can swap cheddar for mozzarella or pepper jack for extra flavor variety.
- Add chopped jalapeños or crushed red pepper for a spicy kick.
