- Burritos seasoning
- 1 onion
- Sliced cheese (half a slice for each burrito)
- Mexican tortillas
- Lettuce
Preparation
First, we will cut the peppers into strips of normal size. Once cut, add a little olive oil to the pan and add the peppers.
It is advisable to put a lid on the pan so that the peppers are better made. We will leave the pan on medium heat.
While the peppers are made, we will cut the onion into a julienne (this is to the taste of each one). Once cut and when the peppers are medium done (3-5 minutes), add it to the pan with the peppers.
We cut the chicken breast into thin strips while the rest of the ingredients are made.
Once the peppers and onion are half done (depends on taste), add the cut chicken breast.
Next, we add the seasoning to the set of ingredients in the pan.
At all times we will leave the pan on medium heat.
Once the ingredients are done, cut the lettuce into small pieces.
Finally, we take a Mexican omelette and put the ingredients on top, fold on one side and rotate the burrito so that it is tight.
To eat!
