Ingredients
- 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
In a small pan, melt butter and sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Lay out the flour tortillas. Place sliced chicken in the center of each tortilla.
Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly over the chicken.
Drizzle the garlic butter mixture over the filling.
Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly to form wraps.
Place the wraps seam-side down back into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
