Description

A quick and easy dish featuring layered flavors with chicken, cheese, and veggies, perfect for busy weeknights or family meals.


Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (your favorite type)
  • 1 bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 onion (optional, sliced)
  • Spices (like cumin or taco seasoning, to taste)
  • Salsa or dipping sauce (for serving)


Instructions

  1. Prep your fillings: If using raw chicken, cook and season it. Shred or dice the cooked chicken.
  2. Heat the tortillas: Warm the tortillas in a pan or microwave until pliable.
  3. Fill and fold: Place fillings on one side of the tortilla and fold it into quarters.
  4. Cook: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, cook the folded tortilla for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy and golden.
  5. Serve: Remove from heat, let rest for a minute, slice, and enjoy with salsa.

Notes

Don’t overfill the tortillas to avoid spillage. Fresh tortillas yield better texture. Experiment with different cheeses for enhanced flavors.
