  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley optional, for garnish

Equipment

  • Griddle or another large skillet
  • Knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring spoons
  • Measuring cups
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides.
  3. Add the minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  6. Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  7. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  8. Sprinkle about 1/3 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese over half of the tortilla.
  9. Top with a generous portion of the cooked chicken.
  10. Sprinkle another 1/3 cup of mozzarella cheese and 1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese over the chicken.
  11. Fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently to seal.
  12. Brush the outside of the wrap with melted butter.
  13. Place the wrap in the preheated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  14. Remove the wrap from the skillet and let it cool slightly before cutting in half.
  15. Garnish with fresh parsley (if using) and serve immediately.

Notes

Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken to ensure proper browning. Use good quality mozzarella cheese for best melting results. Cook the wraps over medium heat to melt the cheese completely and crisp the tortilla without burning. Feel free to add other veggies like spinach, bell peppers, or onions. For a spicy kick, add cayenne pepper or hot sauce. You can cook the chicken ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store leftover wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat in a skillet or microwave.
