Ingredients explained
🐔 400 g chicken breast, cut into large chunks 🧄 1 large garlic clove 🧀 100 g cream cheese (Philadelphia-style) 🧀 80 g grated cheese (cheddar, gouda, or emmental) 🥛 50 g cooking cream or Greek yogurt 🫒 20 g extra virgin olive oil 🧂 1 teaspoon salt 🌶️ 1 teaspoon sweet paprika ⚫ ½ teaspoon black pepper 🌿 1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence
Also:
🌯 4 large wheat tortillas

Equipment and preparation
Before you start, have everything ready. This makes the recipe flow better and much more enjoyable 😌.
What you need:
– Thermomix (TM5, TM6, or similar)
– Spatula
– Frying pan or microwave to warm the tortillas
– Cutting board and knife
Mise en place:
Cut the chicken into large pieces and measure out the cheeses and spices. Wash and cut the lettuce, tomato, and onion before starting. In 5–10 minutes, everything will be ready and then it’s just a matter of assembling the wraps.
Detailed step-by-step instructions
1 Place the garlic clove in the bowl and chop 5 seconds / speed 7, so the flavor is well distributed without large pieces.
2 Add the chicken, oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and herbs. Program 8 minutes / Varoma / reverse / spoon speed to cook the chicken without shredding it.
3 Add the cream cheese, cream, and grated cheese. Cook 3 minutes / 90°C / reverse / speed 1 until everything is melted and creamy.
4 Check the texture. If it’s too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk or cream and mix for a few more seconds.
5 Taste and adjust salt or spices if needed. This is the moment to personalize the flavor.
6 Heat the tortillas in a pan or microwave so they are flexible and don’t break when rolling.
7 Assemble the wraps: lettuce, hot cheesy chicken filling, tomato, and onion if you like. Fold in the sides and roll tightly.
