Ingredients
  

Filling Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded You can use leftover rotisserie chicken.
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Gives stretch.
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Adds sharp flavor.
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened Light cream cheese works too.
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced Or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder if short on time.
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped Plus extra for garnish.
  • 1 handful baby spinach, optional Adds color and a vitamin boost.
Wrap Ingredients
  • 4 large low-carb tortillas Any large low carb tortilla will do.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Let it shimmer but not smoke.
  2. Wrap the low carb tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 10 to 15 seconds to make them pliable.
  3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the shredded chicken, mozzarella, cheddar, cream cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper until evenly combined. Fold in the baby spinach if you’re using it.
Assembly
  1. Divide the mixture into four equal portions. Place about 1/2 cup of filling down the center of each warmed tortilla. Tuck the short sides in, then roll tightly from one long side to the other.
Cooking
  1. Place each wrap seam-side down in the skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side over medium heat, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden and the cheese inside is melted.
  2. Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them rest for 1 minute. Slice in half on the diagonal and garnish with extra parsley. Serve hot.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken or leftover roasted chicken to save time. If you prefer a firmer filling, reduce the cream cheese by a tablespoon. Store wrapped and cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place a wrap seam-side down in a skillet over low-medium heat and warm until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
