Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 large flour or whole wheat tortillas
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional), like chopped parsley or cilantro
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and sauté until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes per side.
- Remove chicken from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes. In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
- Slice the rested chicken into strips or cubes and return it to the pan with garlic. Cook briefly to combine flavors for about 2 minutes.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the chicken mixture and cover until melted, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Lay tortillas flat, scoop portions of the cheesy chicken mixture onto each one, fold sides inward, and roll tightly.
- For added crispiness, place wrapped tortillas seam-side down in a hot skillet for another minute or two.
