Instructions

Preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then grill for 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before shredding the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, combine shredded chicken with BBQ sauce until well-coated.
Heat a skillet and place one tortilla in it. Layer with cheese, BBQ chicken mixture, and another layer of cheese before folding the tortilla.
Cook until golden brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side) and the cheese is melted.
Cut into wedges and serve hot.
