Ingredients

  • ½ cup Red Onion Finely Chopped
  • ½ cup Cilantro Chopped
  • 2 cup Chicken Breast Seasoned, Cooked & Diced
  • 4` Almond Flour Tortillas
  • ¼ cup Barbecue Sauce
  • ½ cup Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend

Seasoning

  • ½ tablespoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ tablespoon Onion Powder

Instructions

  • Heat a medium pan over medium-high heat. Coat with non-stick cooking spray. Fillet Chicken Breast in half. A thinner piece will cook more quickly. Place pieces into pan and season with Onion Powder and Garlic Powder. After cooked half-way through, flip pieces and season opposite side.
  • Remove pieces and dice on a cutting board. Then place into a medium mixing bowl along with finely chopped Red Onion & Barbecue Sauce. Toss ingredients until Barbecue Sauce has coated all ingredients evenly.
  • Place a tortilla into the bottom of a medium-large pan. Flip after 30 seconds in order to ensure toppings are added to a hot surface. Fill half the tortilla with Chicken, Onion & Barbecue Sauce Mixture. Top with Cheese and finely chopped Cilantro. Immediately fold over tortilla and press lightly to compress ingredients. Flip after about 1 minutes and cook for an additional minute.

Hey there, I'm Calvin! I am seriously interested in where my food comes from and how it is prepared. I'm a father to a growing family living in Southern California just trying to put food on our table that my wife and kids will eat without breaking the bank or spending my whole life in the kitchen
