### Full Instructions
#### Preparing the Chicken
1. **Preheat Oven:** Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. **Pound Chicken:** Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness on a cutting board.
3. **Mix Seasoning:** In a small bowl, mix minced garlic, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
4. **Season Chicken:** Rub the seasoning mix evenly over the chicken breasts.
5. **Sear Chicken:** Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. **Add Cheese:** Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the chicken.
7. **Bake Chicken:** Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (165°F/75°C).
#### Preparing the Wraps
8. **Prepare Tortillas:** Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface.
9. **Mix Fillings:** In a small bowl, mix fresh spinach leaves and diced tomatoes.
10. **Slice Chicken:** Once the chicken is done, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
11. **Assemble Wraps:** Place the spinach and tomato mixture in the center of each tortilla, followed by strips of cheesy chicken. Drizzle with ranch dressing if desired.
12. **Wrap It Up:** Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards and roll from the bottom to the top.
#### Cooking the Wraps
13. **Heat Oil:** Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a clean skillet over medium heat.
14. **Cook Wraps:** Place the assembled wraps seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, grill on a panini press.
#### Serving the Cheesy Garlic Chicken Wraps
15. **Cool & Slice:** Let the wraps cool for a minute, then slice in half diagonally.
16. **Garnish & Serve:** Arrange on a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm with extra ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
