Moist Maker Chicken Wrap (Print Version)

Juicy roast chicken, stuffing, cranberry, and gravy-soaked bread wrapped in a toasted tortilla.

# What You'll Need:

→ Proteins

01 - 2 cups cooked roast chicken, shredded

→ Bread & Wraps

02 - 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
03 - 2 slices white or whole wheat sandwich bread

→ Vegetables & Greens

04 - 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens

→ Stuffing

05 - 1 cup prepared stuffing (homemade or store-bought)

→ Condiments

06 - 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
07 - 3/4 cup chicken or turkey gravy, hot

→ Dairy (optional)

08 - 4 slices provolone or Swiss cheese

→ Seasonings

09 - Salt and black pepper, to taste

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
02 - Place the sandwich bread slices in a shallow dish and pour 1/2 cup of hot gravy over both slices, ensuring they are well soaked but not falling apart. Set aside.
03 - Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds until pliable.
04 - Lay each tortilla flat and layer in the center 1/4 cup stuffing, 1/2 cup shredded chicken, one soaked bread slice torn if necessary, 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce, 1/4 cup greens, and one cheese slice if using. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
05 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly from the bottom to enclose the fillings.
06 - Place wraps seam side down in the preheated skillet. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden and heated through, pressing gently with a spatula for an even crust.
07 - Serve immediately with the remaining hot gravy for dipping.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It turns leftovers into something you actually crave, not just tolerate.
  • The gravy-soaked bread in the middle is an absurdly satisfying texture surprise.
  • You get all the comfort of a holiday plate in a handheld form you can eat on the couch.
  • It toasts up crispy on the outside while staying soft and juicy inside.
02 -
  • Do not oversoak the bread or it will disintegrate inside the wrap and make everything mushy.
  • Always toast seam side down first so the wrap seals itself shut as it heats.
  • If your tortilla tears while rolling, just start over with a fresh one, a torn wrap will leak gravy everywhere.
03 -
  • Use day-old stuffing if you have it, it holds together better and doesn't turn mushy inside the wrap.
  • Press the wrap gently but firmly with the spatula while toasting to help the cheese melt and the layers fuse.
  • Keep a little extra gravy warm on the stove, people always want more for dipping than you think.
