Description

Delicious and easy-to-make Cheesy Chicken Wraps loaded with shredded chicken, melted cheddar cheese, fresh tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro, wrapped in warm flour tortillas and pan-grilled to golden perfection in just 20 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Wrap Filling

  • 1 lb cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas


Instructions

  1. Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, red onion, and chopped cilantro. Mix all ingredients thoroughly to distribute flavors evenly.
  2. Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, adjusting seasoning as desired to enhance the flavor of the filling mixture.
  3. Assemble Wraps: Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the four large flour tortillas, spreading the filling down the center of each tortilla.
  4. Roll Wraps: Carefully roll up each tortilla, folding in the sides to securely enclose the filling and form a tight wrap.
  5. Heat Pan: Preheat a skillet or pan over medium heat, ensuring it is hot enough to crisp the tortilla without burning.
  6. Cook Wraps: Place the wraps seam side down in the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, pressing lightly if needed, until the tortillas are golden and crispy and the cheese inside has melted.
  7. Serve: Remove the wraps from the pan and serve them hot for the best taste and texture. Enjoy your cheesy chicken wraps!

Notes

  • You can substitute cheddar with other cheeses like monterey jack or mozzarella for a different flavor.
  • Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to modify the recipe to dietary needs.
  • Add a splash of hot sauce or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor when serving.
  • For added crunch, consider adding shredded lettuce or sliced cucumbers inside the wrap before rolling.
