Ingredients
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced

– 4 large tortillas
– Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Creating Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt, pepper, paprika, and onion powder.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes.
3. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
4. Shred the Chicken: Once the chicken has cooled, shred it using two forks or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
5. Combine Ingredients: Add the shredded chicken back to the skillet with the sautéed garlic and stir to mix well. If using, add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture. Cook until the cheese is melted, stirring occasionally.
7. Prepare the Tortillas: Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds or until pliable.
8. Assemble the Wraps: Divide the cheesy chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas. Roll each tortilla tightly to enclose the filling.
9. Grill the Wraps: If desired, place the wraps seam-side down in the skillet over medium heat. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
10. Slice and Serve: Remove from the skillet and slice each wrap in half. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
