Chicken tortillas...


Chicken tortillas....
(Makes 4-6)

My own version of simple and delicious folds. I looooove it...
Ingredients:
250 grams chicken fillets (Boiled and shredded)
1-2 tablespoon of guacamole dip (See guacamole recipe)
250 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
1 small lettuce (thinly sliced)
Jalapeno peppers
4-6 tortillas wraps


Directions:

1. Boil chicken fillets for 10 Min's with a good pinch of salt.

2. Shred chicken into small strips.

3. Heat a pan and place 1 piece of the tortilla.

4. Grab a hand full of the mozzarella cheese, sprinkle it on the left side of the tortilla.

5. Followed by the hand full of the chicken and lettuce.

6. Spread 1- 2 tablespoon of guacamole.

7. Top it up with a few jalapenos peppers.

8. Carefully fold tortilla into 2 with a wooden spatula. Gently pressing it down so all the filling binds together.

9. The cheese should be melted nicely by now, flip it slowly over. Leave it for 1 minute.

10. Serve hot, cut folds into halves.

Enjoyyyyyy.............
