Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch, burrito-size)
  • 4 flat tostada shells (or a handful of thick tortilla chips for crunch)
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
  • 1 cup red enchilada sauce (mild or medium)
  • 1½ cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend, cheddar, or Monterey Jack)
  • ½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup corn (frozen and thawed or canned and drained)
  • 1 small onion, finely diced (optional)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced (or ½ tsp garlic powder)
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning (or chili powder + cumin + salt)
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (for the skillet)
  • ¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (for serving)
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro and 1 lime (optional)
  • Hot sauce or diced jalapeño (optional, for heat)
  • Extra small tortilla or trimmed tortilla round to “cap” the wrap, if needed

Instructions

  1. Make the filling. In a skillet over medium heat, warm 1 tsp oil. Add onion and garlic; cook 2–3 minutes until soft. Stir in shredded chicken, taco seasoning, and ½ cup enchilada sauce. Cook 2–3 minutes until coated and hot.
  2. Prep the station. Warm tortillas 10–15 seconds per side so they bend easily. Lay out cheese, tostadas, beans, corn, and the rest of the sauce.
  3. Place a large tortilla on a board. Sprinkle a small ring of cheese in the center.
  4. Set a tostada shell on the cheese. Top with chicken mixture, beans, corn, a spoon of sauce, and more cheese.
  5. Cap and fold. Place a small tortilla round on top. Fold the large tortilla edges up and over the center, working around to seal.
  6. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium with a thin layer of oil. Place the wrap seam-side down; cook 3–4 minutes until golden. Flip and cook 2–3 minutes more until crisp and the cheese melts.
  7. Rest for 1 minute. Cut in halves. Serve with lime, extra sauce, sour cream or Greek yogurt, cilantro, and hot sauce.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken for faster preparation. These wraps store well and can be made ahead of time.
