Crispy Chicken Wraps

I have a love-hate relationship with these :) The first time I made them I was IN LOVE and couldn't wait to shout it to the world {and share the recipe}. My husband, too, fell in love and requested them again and again {we had them for 3 weeks straight.... thus bringing on my hate part of the relationship}. The second time I made them, I made them too spicy. The 3rd time... well... I just didn't love them anymore, but my husband still did and DOES..... he wants to eat them every week {sigh...} But they ARE good and have great flavor! The cilantro is what gets me, personally, so I say give it a try and see what you think! They are super easy to throw together too! I got this recipe from Melskitchencafe.com 1/3 cup mayonnaise, light or regular 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro 3 scallions, sliced very thin 2 celery ribs, chopped fine (I omitted these cause that is what Mel did) 2 tablespoons sour cream, light or regular 2 teaspoons hot sauce (this does not make them spicy but adds great flavor!) about 3 cups cooked shredded chicken 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 4 (12-inch) flour tortillas Whisk the mayonnaise, cilantro, scallions, celery, sour cream and hot sauce in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to combine. Sprinkle cheese over tortillas, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges, then arrange chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll stuffed tortillas, leaving edges open. Spray the tortillas all over with cooking spray. Heat a large non-stick skillet (or griddle) over medium heat for 1 minute. Arrange 2 wraps, seam-side down, in pan and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining wraps. Serve.
