Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Equipment

  • Medium bowl
  • large skillet
  • small bowl
  • spatula
  • Measuring spoons
  • Measuring cups
  • knife
  • cutting board

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken pieces, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
  2. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to several hours in the refrigerator.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the marinated chicken to the skillet in a single layer.
  5. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, flipping halfway through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, and parsley (if using). Stir to combine.
  7. Lay a tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a thin layer of the garlic butter over the tortilla.
  8. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese. Top with 1/4 of the cooked chicken. Sprinkle with another 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese.
  9. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly.
  10. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  11. Place the wraps in the skillet, seam-side down.
  12. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  13. Remove the wraps from the skillet and let them cool slightly before cutting in half. Serve immediately and enjoy your Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps!

Notes

Leftover Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, you can either microwave the wraps for a minute or two, or reheat them in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. You can also bake them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. Add sautéed onions, bell peppers, or mushrooms for variation. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter for a little heat. A drizzle of ranch dressing, sriracha mayo, or honey mustard would be a great addition. Add feta cheese, olives, and a dollop of tzatziki sauce for a Mediterranean twist.
