Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- ½ cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: red pepper flakes for heat
Wrap and Garnish
- 4 large flour tortillas (can substitute whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas)
- 1 cup fresh spinach or baby arugula
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked shredded or diced chicken, Alfredo sauce, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan cheese. Season the mixture with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly distribute the chicken and cheese mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Top each with a handful of fresh spinach or baby arugula.
- Wrap it up: Fold the sides of each tortilla inward over the filling and then roll tightly from one end to the other, forming a secure wrap.
- Cook the wraps: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, pressing gently, until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese inside has melted.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet and place on a serving plate. Slice in half diagonally if desired. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra spicy kick if using, and serve hot.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider adding sautéed mushrooms or roasted red peppers into the filling mix.
- These wraps can be assembled ahead of time and cooked just before serving for convenience.
- To make this recipe gluten-free, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
