Italian chicken wraps are filled with juicy tender chicken, pepper, onion, and garlic. It is super easy to make and full of flavor.
This is a one skillet meal that you can make any day of the week. The chicken is tender and juicy and full of flavor. I used green and red peppers not only for the flavor but for the color too. (You know that you eat with our eyes first). When making these wraps you need to have onion and garlic to add flavor. Italian seasoning brings all of the ingredients together.
When it comes to food for Mike and me, we love anything with pepper, onions, and garlic. We love this combination with burgers, brats, and Italian sausage. I don’t believe I have ever made chicken with this combination before.
So when we bought the skinless boneless chicken thighs, I wanted to try something different. This is another one of my recipes that came to me while lying in bed in the middle of the night. I tell you I think the best ideas come to me at this time.
To start this recipe you will want to cook the peppers, onions, and garlic until they are soft. Once they get to this point you will remove them from the skillet and add the chicken thighs and brown them on both sides.
After the chicken is brown you can add the peppers, onions, and garlic back to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper along with Italian seasoning. Once you get to this point the skillet is put in the oven to finish, so make sure you are using a skillet that is oven proof.
Bake until the chicken is no longer pink. Slice and place chicken, peppers, onions, and garlic into soft tortilla shells. Mozzarella can be added to the wraps before serving, but it is optional. They are delicious either way.

These wraps sound like they’re right up my alley! I love the flavors you’ve got going on in here, Dawn. I have to admit that I don’t use chicken thighs that much…but I might have to start experimenting now. Oh, and the best ideas totally come in the middle of the night! I’ve been known to get up and write something down so I don’t forget it the next morning. Haha!
