Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts, grilled and sliced into thin strips

4 whole wheat tortillas

1 cup fresh mozzarella balls, drained and halved

1 large ripe tomato, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh basil leaves, washed and patted dry

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons pesto sauce

Salt and pepper, to taste

Olive oil, for drizzling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Season the grilled chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Once seasoned, slice the chicken into thin strips, then set aside to rest.

    Assemble the Wraps: Take a whole wheat tortilla and lay it flat on a clean cutting board or plate. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of pesto sauce evenly across the entire surface of the tortilla, ensuring a good coating for flavor.

      Layer Ingredients: On top of the pesto-coated tortilla, begin layering your ingredients. Start by arranging a portion of the grilled chicken strips, followed by a handful of halved fresh mozzarella balls. Next, add a few slices of ripe tomato, and finally, generously sprinkle fresh basil leaves over the top.

        Drizzle Balsamic: For an extra burst of flavor, lightly drizzle balsamic glaze over the layered ingredients, allowing it to seep into the layers.

          Wrap It Up: To secure the fillings, fold in the sides of the tortilla first, then tightly roll the wrap from the bottom to the top, ensuring all delicious ingredients are enclosed within. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients, resulting in four delicious wraps.

            Serve: Once assembled, take a sharp knife and cut each wrap in half diagonally to showcase the vibrant layers inside. Arrange the halves on a serving platter and, if desired, drizzle a little olive oil over the top for richness. Enjoy your fresh and flavorful Caprese Chicken Wraps!
