Half a red pepper, cut into strips

Half a red onion, sliced

A handful of corn

1 teaspoon olive oil

Paprika

Garlic powder

Salt and pepper

2 tablespoons tahini for serving

Preparation

Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a pan and add the chicken strips. Season with paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and sauté until the chicken is nearly cooked through.

Add the onion and pepper and continue sautéing for a few more minutes, until the vegetables soften slightly and get some color.

Place the mixture in the center of each tortilla, add a bit of corn, and fold tightly. Return to a dry pan and sear on both sides until the tortilla turns golden and crispy.

Cut in half and serve alongside tahini and a fresh vegetable salad.
