- 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: chopped lettuce diced tomatoes, or ranch dressing
Step 1: Cook the Chicken
Firstly start cutting the chicken breasts into thin strips. This is key because it helps the chicken cook quickly and evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken strips and cook for about 6-8 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. For extra juicy chicken, avoid overcrowding the pan and let each piece develop a nice crust before turning.
Step 2: Add the Garlic and Cheese
Once the chicken is cooked, add minced garlic to the pan. Stir it around with the chicken for about a minute, just until fragrant. Then, sprinkle your shredded cheese over the mixture and allow it to melt. Watching the cheese melt is one of my favorite parts the way it turns everything into a creamy, delicious filling is pure magic.
Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay out each tortilla on a flat surface and spoon some of the chicken and cheese mixture into the center. If you’re adding extra veggies, like spinach or bell peppers, layer them on top now. Then fold up the tortilla, burrito-style, so it’s secure and won’t spill out the filling.
Step 4: Toast the Wraps
Toasting the wraps is optional, but it makes all the difference. Toast each wrap in a hot skillet for about a minute on each side until it’s golden and crispy. This step gives the wrap a delightful crunch, and it helps seal everything inside.
