Tortillas

  1. Mix the flour and salt and gradually add the water, mixing well. You should get a smooth dough that is slightly sticky. Depending on the flour you use, you may need a little more or less water.
  2. Shape into a ball and leave to rest for 10 min.
  3. Knead well on a floured worktop (don’t be afraid of using flour) until the dough no longer sticks.
  4. Leave to rest for 10 min more.
  5. Stretch the dough into a log and cut into 4 pieces, then roll each into a ball.
  6. Roll out each ball as thinly as possible.
  7. Prick the dough so it doesn’t puff up.
  8. Brush a frying pan with a little oil and cook the tortillas one by one. They only need 1 or 2 min on each side.

Filling

  1. In a frying pan with a little oil, cook the onion strips.
  2. When translucent, add the red pepper, also in strips.
  3. After about 5 min, add the chicken in strips along with the spices and salt.
