Juicy roast chicken and savory stuffing wrapped with cranberry sauce and greens in a toasted tortilla.

# Ingredient list:

→ 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 - Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot.
02 - Place bread slices in a shallow dish and pour 1/2 cup hot gravy over them. Ensure they absorb the gravy without disintegrating. Set aside.
03 - Microwave tortillas for 10 to 15 seconds to increase pliability.
04 - Lay tortillas flat. Center 1/4 cup stuffing, 1/2 cup shredded chicken, one soaked bread slice (halved if needed), 2 tablespoons cranberry sauce, 1/4 cup greens, and a slice of cheese if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
05 - Fold the tortilla sides inward, then roll from the bottom up tightly to enclose all fillings.
06 - Place wraps seam-side down on the preheated skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden and heated through, pressing gently with a spatula to form an even crust.
07 - Serve immediately with remaining hot gravy for dipping.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It captures every layer of a holiday feast in a handheld wrap you can eat without a fork.
  • The gravy-soaked bread stays tender inside while the tortilla crisps up beautifully in the pan.
  • You can make it any time of year with rotisserie chicken and store-bought stuffing.
  • Leftovers transform into something completely new instead of feeling like day-three dinner fatigue.
02 -
  • Do not oversoak the bread or it will disintegrate when you try to roll the wrap.
  • Press the wraps gently in the skillet so the tortilla crisps evenly without squeezing out the filling.
  • Warm the tortillas before filling or they will crack along the edges when you fold them.
03 -
  • Use day-old bread for the moist maker layer because it soaks up gravy better than fresh soft bread without falling apart.
  • Toast the wraps seam side down first so the heat seals the edge and keeps everything tucked inside.
  • If your stuffing is dry, mix in a tablespoon of gravy or broth before adding it to the wrap for extra moisture.
