For the wraps
- 1 cup cream cheese

Instructions
Cooking the Chicken
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
Preparing the Filling
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- In a bowl, combine the cream cheese and shredded cheese, mixing well. Slice the cooked chicken and add it to the cheese mixture.
Assembling the Wraps
- Lay out the tortillas and spoon the chicken and cheese mixture onto each tortilla. Roll them up tightly to form wraps.
- Optional: For extra crispiness, return the wraps to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side until golden.
Serving the Wraps

Notes
Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the chicken for even cooking. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (165°F or 74°C). Customize your wraps by adding vegetables or spices.
