Instructions

  • Place the pan on the stove, turn heat to high, and add the oil
  • Once the pan is hot, turn heat to medium, add both the chicken and pepper to the hot pan
  • Spread the meat and pepper evenly to cover the pan. Stir about once every minute so that the meat can get some color

  • Place the sautéed meat to a plate. Rinse the pan
  • Put the pan back onto the stove at medium heat. Once the pan is dry, place a tortilla to the pan, roast each side for about 15 seconds. Remove the tortilla from the pan
  • Add some cheese onto the tortilla, add some chicken and pepper, and top the meat with more cheese. Roll the tortilla to form a burrito, and place it back to the pan at low to medium heat
  • Toast both sides until browned/golden
  • Serve with a soup or other dishes

Notes

  • If you start from raw chicken breast, you could add it to boiling water and immediately turn heat to low. Let it cook for 15-18 minutes. Take it out, and quench it with ice water.
