Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 large tortillas, flour or whole wheat
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Lettuce, for topping
  • Tomato, for topping
  • Onion, for topping
  • Bell peppers, for topping
  • Avocado, for topping
  • Sour cream, for topping
  • Salsa, for topping

Equipment

  • large skillet
  • meat thermometer
  • Cutting board
  • knife
  • Mixing bowls
  • Spatula
  • Grill pan or outdoor grill (optional)
  • Baking sheet (optional)
  • Parchment paper (optional)
  • Microwave (optional)
  • Dry skillet (optional)
  • Toothpicks (optional)

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  3. Add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  4. Remove the chicken from the heat and set aside.
  5. Warm the tortillas slightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few seconds per side, or in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds.
  6. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  7. Sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella and cheddar cheese onto the tortilla.
  8. Top with a portion of the cooked garlic chicken.
  9. Add your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and bell peppers.
  10. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
  11. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly.
  12. For grilling: Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium heat. Place the wraps on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  13. For baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the wraps on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  14. For pan-frying: Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Place the wraps in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  15. Cut the wraps in half and serve immediately.
  16. Garnish with extra parsley or a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

Notes

Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. Use fresh garlic for the best flavor. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat. Get creative with different cheese types. Substitute chicken with black beans or grilled vegetables for a vegetarian option. Prepare ingredients ahead of time to save time. Pat juicy toppings dry to prevent soggy wraps. Use toothpicks to secure the wraps while cooking. Leftover wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave, oven, or skillet.
