Ingredients
  

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 large eggs

4 large flour tortillas

2 cups marinara sauce (with extra for serving)

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven:

    Set your oven to preheat at 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the chicken.

      Prepare the Chicken:

        - In a shallow dish, thoroughly combine the Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

          - In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined.

            - Take each chicken breast, dip it into the egg wash, letting the excess drip off, and then coat it thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each piece is well covered.

              Bake the Chicken:

                - Arrange the coated chicken breasts on a lined baking sheet in a single layer.

                  - Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is completely cooked and the coating is a lovely golden brown. Check for doneness with a meat thermometer; an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) is ideal.

                    - Once cooked, allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.

                      Assemble the Wraps:

                        - Take each flour tortilla and spread a generous amount of marinara sauce evenly across the surface.

                          - Place strips of the baked chicken on top of the sauced tortillas, followed by an even sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.

                            - Carefully roll the tortillas into tight wraps, starting from one edge and tucking in the ends as you go to ensure a secure hold.

                              Bake the Wraps:

                                - Lay the assembled wraps seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, drizzle a little extra marinara sauce and sprinkle additional mozzarella on top for extra deliciousness.

                                  - Return the wraps to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tortillas are lightly golden.

                                    Serve:

                                      - Remove the wraps from the oven and allow them to cool for a minute before slicing them in half diagonally for serving.

                                        - Plate the wraps with a small bowl of extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and flavor if desired.
