A delicious way to enjoy pizza while packing in protein, this innovative dish combines the beloved flavors of pizza with the convenience of a burrito.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 large whole wheat tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas for a gluten-free alternative)
1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded (or ground turkey)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 cup sliced black olives (optional)
1/2 cup bell peppers, diced (optional)
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, pizza sauce, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix until well incorporated.
Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface. Spoon about 1/4 of the filling mixture into the center of the tortilla.
Sprinkle any optional toppings on top of the filling.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling mixture, placing each burrito seam-side down.
Place the burritos seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
