PREPARATION

MAKE THE PEPPERS

First, 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 to make the peppers better. We will leave the pan over medium heat.

MAKE THE ONION

While the peppers are being made, we will cut the julienne onion (this is to suit each one). Once cut and when the peppers are moderately made (3-5 minutes), add it to the pan next to the peppers.

MAKE THE CHICKEN BREAST

Cut the chicken breast into thin strips while making the rest of the ingredients.

Once the peppers and onions are half done (depending on taste), add the chicken breast cut.

Next, we add the seasoning to the set of ingredients in the pan.

At all times we will leave the pan over medium heat.

WE ASSEMBLE THE BURRITO

Once the ingredients are done, cut the lettuce into small pieces.

Finally, we take a Mexican tortilla and put the ingredients on top, fold on one side and rotate the burrito to make it tight.

To eat!
