Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- Salt and pepper to taste
Other
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 large low-carb tortillas
Instructions
- Preheat the skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil to warm it up in preparation for cooking the wraps.
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken breast, shredded mozzarella, shredded cheddar, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a creamy and cheesy chicken filling.
- Assemble the wraps: Lay out each large low-carb tortilla and spoon an equal amount of the chicken and cheese filling onto each one. Roll each tortilla tightly around the filling to secure it.
- Cook the wraps: Place the wraps seam side down in the heated skillet. Cook each wrap for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese inside has melted, ensuring a crispy exterior and melty interior.
- Serve: Remove the cooked wraps from the skillet and slice them in half if desired. Serve immediately while hot for the best taste experience.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to ensure a smooth filling.
- Use low-carb tortillas to keep this recipe keto-friendly and reduce carbohydrates.
- You can add fresh herbs like parsley or chives to the filling for extra flavor.
- For a spicier version, consider adding red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce into the filling mixture.
- If you prefer a crispier wrap, press them down slightly while cooking in the skillet.
