  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

Instructions

Step 1
Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and swirl to coat.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into four portions. Spoon each portion onto the center of a tortilla, then roll up tightly to form a wrap.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

To ensure the wraps seal properly, always place them seam-side down in the hot skillet first. Using a medium heat setting is important to ensure the cheese melts thoroughly without burning the low-carb tortillas, which can sometimes brown faster than traditional wraps.
