Ingredients
  

Cheesy garlic chicken filling
  • 1 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 0.5 salt and pepper To taste
  • 2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1.5 cup shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 0.25 cup ranch or Caesar dressing

Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet
  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Cook the chicken
  1. Season the chicken strips with salt and pepper, then cook them in 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through to 165°F.
  2. In the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, cook the minced garlic for 1 minute until fragrant, then toss the cooked chicken strips in the garlic butter and stir in the chopped parsley.
Assemble and toast the wraps
  1. Warm the tortillas until pliable, then spread ranch dressing over each tortilla.
  2. Layer shredded mozzarella, garlic chicken strips, shredded romaine, and halved cherry tomatoes over each tortilla.
  3. Roll tightly and toast seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes per side until golden and the cheese is melted, using the cut edge as a visual cue for stretchy melt.
  4. Slice diagonally and serve immediately while the cheese is still pulling.

Notes

For the best melt and crisp toast, keep the seam-side down during the first flip and don’t overfill the center. Store assembled wraps in the refrigerator up to 3 days; reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. Freeze not recommended because the lettuce and tortillas soften after thawing. For a lighter option, use low-fat mozzarella and light ranch or Caesar.
