Ingredients
For the Chicken Filling:
-
2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
4 large flour tortillas
-
1 cup cream cheese, softened
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Garlic Sauce & Topping:
-
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
-
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
-
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
-
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or cast-iron pan with cooking spray.
-
Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, minced garlic, and chopped fresh parsley. Set aside.
-
Make the Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and half of the garlic butter mixture until smooth and creamy.
-
Assemble the Rolls: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide the chicken filling evenly among the tortillas, spreading it down the center. Sprinkle a handful of mozzarella cheese over each filling, then roll them up tightly.
-
Arrange and Top: Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Brush the remaining garlic butter evenly over the tops of the rolls, then cover generously with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese.
-
Bake: Bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted, bubbling, and golden brown on top.
-
Serve: Garnish with extra fresh chopped parsley and serve warm.
