Preparation

- Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated to create a creamy seafood filling.
- Lay out each flour tortilla flat and evenly spread the seafood filling over the surface.
- Roll the tortillas tightly to encase the filling and place each seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Cooking
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté additional minced garlic until fragrant but not browned.
- Pour in the heavy cream and let it simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Pour the garlic cream sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the tops are golden brown.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top before serving.
Notes
Serve hot with a green salad or steamed veggies. For a saucy option, spoon extra garlic cream over each roll.
