Delicious and easy-to-make Broccoli Cheddar Chicken Rollups featuring a creamy blend of chicken, steamed broccoli, and cheddar cheese wrapped in warm flour tortillas, pan-toasted to golden perfection. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner with a cheesy, savory filling.
Ingredients
Filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded)
- 1½ cups broccoli florets (steamed and finely chopped)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Wrap and Cooking
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for pan-toasting)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, finely chopped steamed broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are fully incorporated into a creamy mixture.
- Fill the tortillas: Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide the chicken and broccoli mixture evenly among the tortillas, spreading it in a line across the center of each tortilla.
- Roll the tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly like a burrito, ensuring the filling stays inside. Seal the seam by placing it underside down.
- Pan-toast the rollups: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown and the filling is warmed through.
- Serve: Remove from the skillet, slice each rollup in half if desired, and serve warm as a satisfying main course or snack.
Notes
- These rollups can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Swap broccoli with spinach or kale for a different vegetable option.
- Use mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar for a milder cheese flavor.
- Serve with a side salad or dipping sauces like ranch or honey mustard for added flavor.
