Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 medium tortilla wrap
  • 150 g (5 oz) cooked chicken chopped or shredded
  • 50 g (1.5 oz) mozzarella torn into small pieces
  • 1 tablespoon basil pesto
  • 1 teaspoon mayo
  • 2 slices tomato

Instructions

  • Mix the pesto and mayo in a small bowl.
  • Spread the pesto mayo over the centre of the wrap, then add the cooked chopped chicken, sliced tomatoes, and torn mozzarella.
  • Fold in the sides, then roll up tightly from the bottom.
  • Toast in a dry griddle pan for 3–4 mins each side, until golden and the cheese has melted.
  • Slice and serve while hot.

Notes

  • Pizza mozzarella is best for this – it melts nicely without making the wrap soggy.
  • Toast the wrap seam-side down first to stop it unravelling.
  • If your wrap feels stiff or cracks when rolling, pop it in the microwave for 10 seconds to soften.
  • Let the wrap sit for a minute after toasting – it’ll be easier to slice without everything falling out.
  • No griddle pan? A regular frying pan will still give you that lovely golden finish.
