 STEP 1: 

To make these grilled chicken pizza melts, I started by heating a skillet over medium-high heat.

Once the skillet was hot I added in three frozen chicken burger patties.

 STEP 2: 

I flipped the patties around the four minutes mark.

I continued cooking the patties until they reached an internal temperature of 165F.

Then I removed the cooked chicken patties from the skillet.

 STEP 3: 

I placed the chicken patties on a cutting board and sliced each one into 6 strips.

 STEP 4: 

I placed 3 high protein tortillas on the counter.

I placed shredded mozzarella cheese down the center of each tortilla.

I placed 6 chicken strips on top of the cheese on each tortilla.

 STEP 5: 

I spoon pizza sauce over the chicken.

I placed pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.

 STEP 6: 

I sprinkled more shredded mozzarella cheese over the pepperoni.

I folded up both sides of the tortillas over the filling.

 STEP 7: 

I heated a very large skillet over medium-low heat.

Once the skillet was hot I placed the wraps, seam side down, in the skillet.

I cooked the wraps until they were well browned on the bottom and then I flipped them.

I continued cooking the wraps until they were nicely browned on both sides and the cheese inside was melted.

I transferred the toasted wraps to a cutting board.

I sliced each wrap in half.

Then the cheesy chicken and pepperoni pizza wraps were ready to serve.
