# Instructions:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended. Gently fold in the diced or shredded cooked chicken, ensuring even coating of all pieces.
02 -
Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Distribute the creamy chicken filling evenly along the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top and add any desired garnishes such as chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, or fresh herbs. Roll each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to seal the filling.
03 -
For skillet cooking, preheat a skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese has melted. For oven baking, arrange wraps in a baking dish and bake at 175°C for 10 to 12 minutes, or until thoroughly heated and lightly crisped.
04 -
Slice each wrap in half, garnish with fresh herbs or an additional sprinkle of cheese as preferred, and serve warm.
# Notes:
01 -
For extra flavour, use a combination of cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Leftover roast chicken works well for this preparation.
