Directions
Firstly fry the onions and garlic in some olive oil.
Add the chicken strips and seasonings.
Add 2- 3 tbps water.
Dish up and keep aside
Salsa
In a separate bowl mix in all the chopped tomatoes, onions, green pepper, coriander and mint leaves.
Squeeze in the lime when about to serve or it may get too watery.
Salt, pepper and paprika or chilli powder as desired.
I omitted all these and yet it is flavourful.
To assemble:
Place a piece of lettuce (if desired) on the base of tortilla.
Add salsa horizontally in a long row.
Now add some chickenon top of that.
Finish off by sprinkling cheese.
To seal and make it more tasty, spread sour cream over rest of the tortilla base and roll up tightly.
Cut into half and wrap partly so you can hold the roll and eat without the fillings falling out.
Once prepared, it is easy for anyone to prepare their own tortilla roll.
Guacamole made easy is simply mashing the soft avocade and mixing in a bit of mayonnaise or salad cream/sour cream.
Season to taste.
