Assembling
  1. Lay one tortilla flat on the counter. Spoon about 1/2 cup filling along the center, leaving space at the edges.
  2. Fold the short edges in and roll tightly from one long side to the other.
Cooking
  1. Place the wraps seam-side down in the preheated skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  2. Lower the heat if the tortillas are browning too quickly and cover the pan for 30 seconds to help the cheese melt.

  2. Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley.
