Savory Baked Cheese and Garlic Chicken Wraps with Fresh Herbs

A warm, cheesy wrap featuring juicy chicken breast, melted cheese, garlic, and fresh herbs, all wrapped in a soft tortilla.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 4 large tortillas or wraps
  • Olive oil, for drizzling
  • Fresh herbs, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
  2. In a bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Create a pocket in each chicken breast by slicing through the thick side without cutting all the way through.
  4. Stuff each chicken breast pocket with the cheese and herb mixture, adding chopped baby spinach if desired.
  5. Wrap each stuffed chicken breast in a tortilla, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
  6. Place the wraps seam-side down in a greased baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with additional herbs if desired.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  9. Let the wraps rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
