# What You'll Need:

→ Chicken & Cheese Filling

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
02 - 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
03 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
04 - 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
07 - Salt and pepper, to taste

→ Wraps

08 - 4 large low-carb tortillas

→ For Cooking

09 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and swirl to coat evenly.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
03 - Divide the mixture into four equal portions. Spoon each portion onto the center of a tortilla and roll up tightly to form a wrap.
04 - Place the wraps seam side down in the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
05 - Remove from the skillet, slice each wrap in half, and serve hot. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Ready in 30 minutes flat, which means you can have dinner on the table faster than ordering takeout.
  • Every bite delivers melted cheese and savory garlic without any of the carb guilt that usually comes with comfort food.
  • The filling comes together in one bowl, so cleanup is mercifully minimal.
02 -
  • Don't overfill the tortillas, or they'll burst open in the pan and lose all that beautiful cheese filling to the skillet bottom.
  • Make sure your cream cheese is soft before mixing, or you'll end up with lumps instead of a smooth binding agent.
03 -
  • Room-temperature chicken mixes more evenly than cold, so pull it from the fridge a few minutes before assembling if you have the time.
  • Brown the wraps on medium rather than medium-high; this gives the cheese time to melt all the way through without creating a burnt exterior.
