Say goodbye to boring meals and hello to this incredibly satisfying It's packed with savory halal smoked turkey, gooey melted cheese, and a hint of crispy texture, all wrapped in a perfectly toasted tortilla. This simple yet elegant dish is perfect for a quick breakfast, lunch, or a comforting snack, bringing a burst of flavor in every bite.
📜 Ingredients
2 large flour tortillas (8-10 inch)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, or a cheddar-Monterey Jack blend
4 ounces halal smoked turkey breast, diced into small cubes
2 tablespoons halal beef bacon bits (optional, for extra crunch)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter or olive oil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/8 teaspoon dried parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)
📝 Instructions
- Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edge.
- Evenly distribute half of the diced halal smoked turkey over the cheese. If using, sprinkle half of the halal beef bacon bits on top.
- Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling, creating a half-moon shape, then fold it over once more to create a compact triangle or rectangle wrap, ensuring the filling is enclosed. Repeat with the second tortilla and the remaining ingredients.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 tablespoon of butter or olive oil and let it melt.
- Carefully place one wrap into the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is completely melted and gooey. You might need to gently press down on the wrap with a spatula to ensure even contact and melting.
- Remove the cooked wrap from the pan and place it on a cutting board. Repeat with the second wrap, adding the remaining butter or oil to the pan.
- Once both wraps are cooked, slice each one in half crosswise to reveal the irresistible cheesy interior. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh black pepper and dried parsley or chives, if desired, and serve immediately.
💡 Chef's Tips
- Spice it Up: For a little kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the filling before folding.
- Protein Swap: Don't have smoked turkey? Diced halal chicken deli meat, cooked ground beef, or even pan-fried halloumi cheese make delicious alternatives!
- Serving Suggestion: These wraps are fantastic on their own, but they're also wonderful dipped in a side of marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or a simple salsa.
