Ingredients:
- 1.5 lb (680g) boneless skinless chicken breast, diced into ½ inch cubes
- 1 cup (225g) low-fat cottage cheese
- 2 tbsp (12g) dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 tsp (5ml) olive oil
- ½ tsp (3g) garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 (approx. 60g each) low-carb flour tortillas
- 1.5 cups (170g) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp (15ml) butter
Instructions:
- Heat 1 tsp (5ml) of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the diced chicken breast to the skillet. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is mahogany colored and reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
- Place the cottage cheese and dry ranch seasoning into a blender.
- Pulse the mixture until it is completely smooth with no visible curds.
- Wipe the skillet clean and melt ½ tbsp (7.5ml) of butter over medium heat.
- Place one tortilla in the pan. Spread a layer of mozzarella, a portion of the seared chicken, and a dollop of the protein ranch blend.
- Fold the tortilla in half and press down with a spatula.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
- Repeat for the remaining tortillas, cooking in batches if needed.
