  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with a drizzle of olive oil or cooking spray.
  • Mix together the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Cut pockets into each boneless, skinless chicken breast, being careful not to slice all the way through.
  • Stuff each chicken pocket generously with the cheese mixture and chopped spinach.
  • Wrap each stuffed chicken breast in a large tortilla, securing with toothpicks if needed.
  • Arrange the wraps seam-side down in the greased baking dish, then drizzle a bit of olive oil over the top.
  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Uncover and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the tortillas are golden brown.
  • Rest the wraps for a few minutes before slicing, then serve warm.
