Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas (wraps) 300 g (approx. 10.5 oz) cooked
  • spiced chicken breast
  • cut into small cubes (seasoned with paprika, curry powder, or fajita spices) 150 g (approx. 1.5 cups) shredded mozzarella cheese (or melty string cheese) 2 large eggs
  • whisked 100 g (approx. 1 cup) fine breadcrumbs 2 tbsp cooking oil for pan-searing

Instructions

  2. then tightly roll the tortilla forward into a compact
  3. sealed cylinder. Coat: Dip the rolled tortilla into the whisked eggs until completely covered
  4. then roll it in the breadcrumbs until evenly coated on all sides. Crisp: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the rolls seam-side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side

  6. until the crust is golden-brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted. Serve: Remove from the heat
  7. slice or pull apart in half to show the melted cheese pull
  8. and serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Place rolls seam-side down in hot oil to seal immediately and prevent popping open.
  • Use medium heat to allow breadcrumbs to turn golden while cheese melts completely.
  • Rest rolls for thirty seconds after cooking to set the cheese before slicing.
  • Press gently with tongs while turning to maintain cylinder shape.
  • Avoid overfilling to prevent seams from bursting.
  • Fold outer edges inward before rolling to prevent filling spillage.
  • Do not crowd the pan to ensure crispy breadcrumbs.
  • Avoid high heat to prevent burning the coating before cheese melts.
