Description

The flavor is quite interesting. In my opinion, it's something between a pizza wrap and a mild burrito.

Ingredients

Potato - 1 piece
Skin-On Chicken Breasts - 17.6 oz
Celery stalk - 2 pieces
Orange Bell Peppers - 1 piece
Carrot - 1 piece
Honey - 1½ teaspoons
Red Long Chili Peppers - to taste
Salt - to taste
Tortillas - 6 pieces
Semi-soft cream cheese - 6 tablespoons
Grated Pecorino Pepato Cheese - 12 tablespoons
Onion - 1 piece

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Finely chop the onion and sauté it in olive oil until translucent. Add chicken cut into small cubes (about 2 cm on each side). Sauté until golden brown, then add finely chopped carrot, pepper, celery, and tomato to the pan. Season with pepper and salt. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add honey. You may need more honey depending on the acidity of the vegetables. The chicken should have a sweet flavor with a honey aroma and a slight tang.

Step 2

Heat the tortillas in the oven.

Step 3

Spread cream cheese on each tortilla. On top, layer the chicken in a rectangular shape (leaving some space from one edge of the tortilla and the bottom). In other words, the entire tortilla should be coated with cheese, but the chicken should not reach two edges. This is necessary to create the bottom of the roll and to ensure the tortilla 'sticks' to itself with the cheese.

Step 4

Sprinkle grated hard cheese on top of the chicken (about 2 tablespoons for each tortilla).

Step 5

Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over the chicken and start rolling the wrap from the edge without the gap. The other edge should stick to the roll with cheese.
