# Steps to Follow:
01 -
If using raw chicken, season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook by baking, sautéing, or grilling until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Dice into small bite-sized pieces and set aside.
02 -
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30-60 seconds until golden and fragrant, being careful not to burn.
03 -
Add diced chicken to the pan with garlic oil. Toss thoroughly to coat and infuse the chicken with garlic flavor evenly.
04 -
Remove pan from heat. Immediately stir in both mozzarella and cheddar cheeses while chicken is still hot to begin the melting process.
05 -
Place a tortilla flat on work surface. Spoon a generous portion of the cheesy garlic chicken mixture into the center. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly from bottom to top like a burrito.
06 -
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place wraps seam-side down and press gently. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy, flipping carefully.
07 -
Remove cooked wraps from skillet and let rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately while warm.
