Spread tortillas with cream cheese. Place one slice Jack cheese onto each tortilla. Evenly distribute the turkey-onion mixture among the tortillas. Fold the tortillas in half, pressing down gently to adhere ingredients.
To make the fruit chutney: In a saucepan, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stirring occasionally, simmer, uncovered, about 45 minutes until mixture becomes thick. Cool chutney prior to service.
