Instructions

Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and mayonnaise or sour cream until well mixed.
Season the Mixture: Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the chicken and cheese blend. Stir thoroughly to ensure all spices are evenly distributed.
Assemble the Wraps: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about one-quarter of the chicken mixture evenly in the center of the tortilla.
Add Optional Toppings: If using, layer baby spinach or lettuce and diced tomatoes over the chicken mixture for added freshness and texture.
Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from one end to the other to encase the filling securely.
Heat the Skillet: Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat to prepare for cooking the wraps.
Cook the Wraps: Place each wrap seam-side down on the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese inside has melted.
Serve: Remove the wraps from the skillet, slice each in half, and serve warm. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or marinara, if desired.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and flavorful option.
Mayonnaise or sour cream can be used interchangeably based on preference.
Adjust seasoning salt and pepper to taste before assembling.
Optional fresh vegetables add a nice crunch and freshness but can be omitted.
Press the wraps gently while cooking to ensure even browning and melted cheese.
Serve immediately for best taste and texture, as wraps may become soggy if left too long.
