Ingredients: (for 4 wraps – 2 portions)

• 2 pieces of chicken breast – marinated or seasoned however you like
• 40 g barbecue sauce
• 1 red onion
• 80 g grated cheese (I used Gouda)
• 4 medium tortilla wraps
• 60 g sour cream
• salt and pepper
• a cube of butter

Preparation:

We wash the pepper and cut it into small cubes. Then we peel the onion, cut it into quarters, and slice each quarter into even pieces.

Preheat the oven to 200°C and let it heat.

In a large skillet, add the butter and sear the chicken breast on both sides for a few minutes, until it’s nicely browned and cooked through. Transfer it to a cutting board. Holding it steady with a fork so you don’t burn your fingers, slice the chicken into thin strips.

In the same pan, add a little oil and sauté the pepper and onion for a few minutes until they start to brown. Then add the barbecue sauce and the sliced chicken, mix well, season with salt and pepper, and cook for another 1–2 minutes, stirring often so that everything gets nicely coated in the barbecue sauce.

Now it’s time to assemble the wraps. Take one tortilla and spread one-quarter of the sour cream over half of it. Add one-quarter of the chicken, pepper, and onion mixture on top, then sprinkle with one-quarter of the grated cheese. Fold the wrap in half and place it on a baking tray. Repeat the process with the remaining three tortillas. I used two small trays, placing two wraps in each, but you can also arrange all four on one large baking tray.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 8 minutes, or until the wraps are nicely golden and crisp.

Serve them warm. I paired mine with sriracha sauce, and it was a perfect match.
