Crispy Tortilla Pizza Wrap (Printable)

A quick fusion dish featuring a tortilla loaded with classic pizza toppings, folded and pan-toasted until crispy and cheesy.

# What You'll Need:

→ Tortilla Base

01 - 2 large flour tortillas (10-inch diameter)

→ Sauce

02 - 4 tablespoons pizza sauce or tomato passata
03 - 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional, for brushing)

→ Cheese

04 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

→ Toppings

05 - 1/3 cup sliced pepperoni or vegetarian alternative (optional)
06 - 1/4 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
07 - 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
08 - 4 black olives, sliced
09 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
10 - Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)

# How-To Steps:

01 - Place a tortilla on a clean surface. With a knife or scissors, cut a single straight line from the center to the edge (radius cut).
02 - Spread 2 tablespoons pizza sauce evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 1/4 inch border.
03 - Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese (1/2 cup) evenly across the tortilla.
04 - Arrange half of the pepperoni (if using), bell pepper, red onion, and olives in separate quarters of the tortilla. Sprinkle with a pinch of dried oregano.
05 - Starting from the cut, fold each quarter over the next to create a layered, triangle-shaped wrap.
06 - Repeat the previous steps for the second tortilla.
07 - Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with olive oil if desired.
08 - Place the folded wraps seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden and crispy and the cheese is melted.
09 - Remove from the pan, let cool briefly, and garnish with fresh basil if desired. Slice in half and serve hot.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Quick and Easy: From preparation to table in less than 20 minutes.
  • Perfect Texture: Combines a golden, crispy outer layer with a gooey, melted mozzarella center.
  • Handheld Convenience: A portable meal that is ideal for busy lunches or simple dinners.
02 -
  • Maintain a Border: Leaving a 1 cm border when spreading the sauce prevents leakage during the folding and toasting process.
  • Uniform Slicing: Slicing the bell peppers and onions thinly ensures they soften slightly while the wrap is toasting in the pan.
  • Temperature Control: Cook over medium heat to allow the interior cheese to melt fully without burning the tortilla exterior.
