Description
These Parmesan Garlic Chicken Burritos are loaded with juicy chicken, smothered in creamy garlic parmesan sauce, wrapped in a golden grilled tortilla, and bursting with flavor in every bite.
Ingredients
- Chicken Breast: 1 lb, cut into cubes or strips
- Butter: 2 tablespoons
- Garlic: 3 cloves, minced
- Grated Parmesan Cheese: ½ cup
- Heavy Cream: ¾ cup
- Black Pepper: ½ teaspoon
- Salt: ¼ teaspoon
- Mozzarella Cheese: 1 cup, shredded
- Flour Tortillas: 4 large
- Parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped
- Olive Oil: 1 tablespoon
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Get your tortillas, ingredients, and foil ready to wrap.
- Combine Ingredients: In the skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic until golden. Add chicken and cook until browned and fully cooked. Stir in cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Simmer 3 to 4 minutes until thickened.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Clean the skillet or grab a second pan for crisping the burritos.
- Assemble the Dish: Lay out tortillas, spoon a generous line of chicken mixture down the center, sprinkle with mozzarella, and top with parsley. Fold in sides and roll tightly.
- Cook to Perfection: Wipe the skillet clean, add olive oil, and sear the burritos seam-side down until golden on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
- Finishing Touches: Let them cool slightly before slicing to keep the filling intact.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve with fries, a fresh salad, or a simple dipping sauce—ranch or extra garlic cream is a winner.
Notes
- Use freshly grated parmesan for richer flavor.
- Don’t overfill tortillas to avoid tearing.
- Add sautéed veggies for more texture and nutrition.
