Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken fillets, diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup creamy garlic sauce
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Chicken In a mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated. This enhances the flavor and prepares the chicken for cooking.
  2. Step 2: Cook the Chicken Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chicken is golden and fully cooked. Allow the chicken to cool slightly after removing it from heat.
  3. Step 3: Assemble the Burritos Lay the tortillas flat and spread a layer of creamy garlic sauce on each. Distribute the cooked chicken and sprinkle both types of cheese evenly among the tortillas. Fold them over the filling to form burritos.
  4. Step 4: Grill the Burritos Reuse the non-stick pan to grill the folded burritos for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the tortillas are crispy and the cheese has melted.
  5. Step 5: Serve Cut each burrito in half and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot for the best experience.
