Ingredients
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 3 teaspoons sweet pickle juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne chili powder
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 1 red pepper, sliced
- Salt to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups cooked chicken
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions
- In a small bowl mix together mayonnaise, pickle juice, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne chilli until well combined.
- Heat a frying pan on medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add onions, peppers, and salt to taste. Saute until slightly softened.
- Spread about tbsp of mayo mixture on one-half of the tortillas and top with a quarter cup of chicken, some sauteed veggies, and half a cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Fold the other half of the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape, and place it on a hot pan or grill. Cook until golden and crispy on both sides, and gooey in the middle.
- Serve with your favourite hot sauce. Enjoy!
