Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast shredded
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese low-moisture preferred
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese sharp cheddar recommended
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 2 cloves garlic minced fresh
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large low-carb tortillas use certified gluten-free if needed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Equipment

  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Skillet or grill pan
  • Spatula
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the surface evenly. Allow the pan to heat fully before adding the wraps.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella, cheddar, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully incorporated and the cream cheese is evenly distributed. Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened before mixing to avoid clumping.
  3. Divide the filling into 4 equal portions. Spoon each portion onto the center of a low-carb tortilla and roll up tightly, folding in the sides as you go to form a secure wrap.
  4. Place each wrap seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese inside is fully melted. Press down gently with a spatula for even browning. Do not move the wraps too early or they may unfold.
  5. Remove from the skillet, slice each wrap diagonally in half, and serve immediately while hot. Garnish with extra fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Rotisserie chicken works great as a shortcut. Add smoked paprika or chili flakes to the filling for extra flavor. Cooked turkey can be substituted for chicken. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat to restore crispness.
