Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 lb Ground chicken Or ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 2 tbsp Taco seasoning Store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup Cooked seasoned rice e.g., Spanish rice
  • 1.5 cups Shredded cheese blend e.g., Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Mozzarella
For Assembly
  • 1/2 cup Nacho cheese sauce Warmed slightly
  • 1/4 cup Chipotle sauce
  • 1/4 cup Sour cream
  • 1/2 cup Tortilla strips Crushed
  • 1 tbsp Unsalted butter Melted
  • 4 Large flour tortillas 10-12 inch, or gluten-free alternative

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground chicken until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the water and taco seasoning to the skillet with the chicken. Stir well and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
  3. Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the cooked rice and half of the shredded cheese until combined.
  4. Lay out one large tortilla. Spread a layer of nacho cheese sauce, followed by chipotle sauce and sour cream.
  5. Spoon about one-quarter of the chicken and rice mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
  6. Sprinkle crushed tortilla strips and the remaining shredded cheese over the filling.
  7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then fold the bottom up to enclose the filling, creating a rectangular packet.
  8. Heat the melted butter in a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the folded wrap seam-side down in the skillet.
  9. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining wraps.
  10. Let the wraps rest for about 10 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
