How to Make the Recipe

Let’s break this down step by step:

  1. Make the Garlic Butter: In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella, cream cheese, half of the garlic butter, and parsley. Mix well until creamy and cheesy.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Spoon the chicken mixture evenly into the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into wraps.
  4. Toast the Wraps: Brush the outside of each wrap with the remaining garlic butter. Toast in a skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese is melty.
  5. Serve: Slice diagonally and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce—ranch, marinara, or extra garlic butter!

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some tips to make this recipe even better:

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a quick shortcut.
  • Add some heat with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
  • For a keto version, swap flour tortillas with low-carb alternatives.
  • Let the wraps cool slightly before slicing for cleaner cuts.

How to Serve

These wraps are perfect on their own, but here are some ideas to make them even more special:

  • Serve with a side of fresh greens or a simple salad.
  • Pair with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or marinara.
  • Add some crispy veggies like carrots or celery sticks on the side.

Make Ahead and Storage

These wraps are great for meal prep:

  • Prepare the filling up to a day in advance and store in the fridge.
  • Assemble and toast just before serving for the best texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
