Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 large flour tortillas
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
- Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked through (internal temp 165°F).
- Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic, sauté for 1-2 minutes, then stir in oregano and red pepper flakes. Remove from heat.
- Shred the Chicken: After cooking, let chicken rest before shredding into bite-sized pieces.
- Assemble the Wraps: Warm tortillas in the skillet, spoon shredded chicken onto the center, drizzle with garlic butter sauce, and sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
- Fold and Cook the Wraps: Fold in sides and roll the tortilla tightly. Cook wraps seam-side down for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Slice wraps in half, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
- For juicier chicken: Use boneless, skinless thighs instead of breasts.
- Cheese swap: Try Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack for a spicier kick.
- Tortilla options: Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas for a healthier choice.
- Extra garlic: Add more garlic if you love bold flavor.
- Storage: Refrigerate wraps for up to 2-3 days. Reheat in a skillet for crispiness.
