To create these mouth-watering wraps, you will need the following ingredients:

Ingredient | Quantity |
---|---|
Chicken strips | 1 pound |
Olive oil | 2 tablespoons |
Garlic (minced) | 3 cloves |
Dried oregano | 1 teaspoon |
Salt and pepper | To taste |
Mozzarella cheese (shredded) | 1 cup |
Low-carb tortillas | 4 |
Fresh parsley (chopped) | 1/4 cup |
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Sauté the Garlic
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, stirring frequently until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can turn bitter.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and season them with dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
Lower the heat to medium-low and sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the cooked chicken. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4: Warm the Low-Carb Tortillas
While the cheese is melting, warm up your low-carb tortillas in a separate pan or microwave. This step ensures that the tortillas are soft and pliable, making them easier to wrap.
Step 5: Assemble the Wraps
Place a portion of the cheesy garlic chicken onto each tortilla. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for added flavor and freshness. Wrap tightly and serve immediately.
