Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
• 2 pieces Fresh jalapenos
• 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 pieces Large tortillas (flour)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper on both sides.

Step 3

Cook the chicken breasts in the skillet for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from heat and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes (if you prefer less heat). Dice the jalapeno halves into small pieces.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced jalapenos until well combined.

Step 6

Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.

Step 7

Lay out each tortilla on a flat surface. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each tortilla, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.

Step 8

Add a portion of the sliced chicken on top of the cream cheese mixture. If desired, sprinkle with fresh cilantro for added flavor.

Step 9

Roll up each tortilla tightly into a wrap. You can secure it with a toothpick if necessary.

Step 10

Optional: For a crispy exterior, return the wraps to the skillet and lightly toast them for 1-2 minutes on each side.

Step 11

Cut the wraps in half for easier serving and enjoy warm!
