Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 4 large flour tortillas

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves (optional)

  • 1/2 cup sour cream, for serving

  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken
    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse the chicken breasts, pat dry, and slice into thin strips about 1 inch wide.

  • Marinate
    In a bowl, mix garlic, olive oil, paprika, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken strips and toss until evenly coated. Let marinate for 15–20 minutes.

  • Cook the Chicken
    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of olive oil. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F / 75°C). Remove from skillet.

  • Cook the Spinach (Optional)
    Add spinach to the same skillet and sauté for 1–2 minutes until wilted. Remove and set aside.

  • Assemble the Wraps
    Lay tortillas flat. Divide the chicken evenly among them. Top with mozzarella and cheddar cheese, then add spinach if using.

  • Roll the Wraps
    Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from bottom to top.

  • Toast the Wraps
    Wipe the skillet clean and return to medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

  • Serve
    Let rest briefly, slice in half, garnish with cilantro, and serve with sour cream.

Notes

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan when cooking chicken to ensure proper browning.

  • Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melt and flavor.

  • Make it spicy by adding chili flakes or cayenne to the marinade.

  • Meal-prep friendly: Cook the chicken ahead of time and assemble wraps when ready to eat.

  • Swap proteins: This recipe also works well with turkey, shrimp, or leftover rotisserie chicken.
