Ingredients

• Chicken & Cheese Filling
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
• Wraps
  • 4 large low-carb tortillas or wraps
• For Cooking
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and swirl to coat.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 3

Divide the mixture into four portions. Spoon each portion onto the center of a tortilla, then roll up tightly to form a wrap.

Step 4

Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Step 5

Remove from the skillet, slice each wrap in half, and serve hot. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

When preparing the filling, ensure the cream cheese is properly softened to make mixing easier. When placing the wraps in the skillet, always start seam-side down to seal the tortilla and prevent the filling from falling out during flipping.

Varianten und Anpassungen

For an extra kick, add a pinch of smoked paprika or chili flakes to the chicken mixture. You can also substitute the cooked chicken with turkey or rotisserie chicken for a faster preparation. If you require a gluten-free meal, ensure your low-carb tortillas are certified gluten-free.

Serviervorschläge

Serve these hot wraps with a fresh side salad to balance the richness of the cheese. They also pair excellently with a keto-friendly dipping sauce like ranch or a garlic herb dip.
