Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, combine minced garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss in your lean chicken breast pieces, ensuring they’re well coated with the flavorful marinade. Let the chicken marinate for about 5 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once the oil shimmers, add the marinated chicken. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, mix softened cream cheese with half of your shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir until smooth, creating a creamy filling.
  4. Warm your tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until they are pliable, about 30 seconds in the microwave.
  5. Spread a layer of the cheese mixture on each warm tortilla, add a portion of chicken, remaining cheeses, and optional vegetables. Roll tightly to encase the filling.
  6. In the same skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter. Place wraps seam-side down, cooking until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
