These Southwest Cream Cheese Chicken Wraps are creamy, spicy, and packed with bold Tex-Mex flavor. Tender shredded chicken is mixed with cream cheese, black beans, corn, and southwest spices, then wrapped in a soft tortilla for an easy lunch, dinner, or meal prep option. Serve them warm or cold—either way, they’re delicious!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1/2 cup corn (fresh, canned, or thawed from frozen)

  • 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin

  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)

  • Optional: fresh cilantro, salsa, or hot sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  2. Add shredded chicken, black beans, corn, red bell pepper, green onions, and shredded cheese. Mix until everything is evenly coated.

  3. Warm tortillas slightly in the microwave to make them easier to roll.

  4. Divide the mixture among the tortillas, spreading in the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a wrap.

  5. Serve as is, or grill in a pan for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and slightly crispy.

  6. Slice in half and serve with salsa or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Great for meal prep—store wrapped in foil or plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 3 days.

  • Make it spicy by adding chopped jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne.

  • Easily make it vegetarian by swapping chicken for more beans or sautéed veggies.
