Description
Flaky low-carb tortillas stuff with garlicky, melted cheese and tender shredded chicken. A 25-minute skillet recipe that delivers hot, gooey wraps with a golden crust and vibrant Mexican-inspired flavors.
Ingredients
2 cups shredded cooked chicken (or 1 rotisserie chicken)
1 cup shredded mozzarella (part-skim is fine)
½ cup shredded cheddar (sharp or mild)
¼ cup softened cream cheese
2 cloves minced garlic
4 large low-carb tortillas (almond flour or lettuce wraps)
1 tbsp fresh parsley (or cilantro)
1 handful baby spinach (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat
Microwave tortillas wrapped in damp paper towel for 10-15 seconds to soften
Mix chicken, cheeses, garlic, and cream cheese in a bowl until combined
Place ½ cup chicken mixture in center of each tortilla
Fold sides inward then roll tightly from one end
Cook seam-side down in hot skillet 2-3 minutes per side until gold and cheese melts
Slice diagonally and serve warm
Notes
Microwaving tortillas prevents cracking
Using two cheeses blends creaminess and savoriness
Optional spinach adds nutrients without carbs
