Instructions

1
Step 1
Begin by marinating the chicken. Combine soy sauce, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and your choice of spices in a bowl. Add the chicken, ensuring it's well-coated, and let it marinate for 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2
Step 2
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté them until they become translucent, releasing their sweet aroma.
3
Step 3
Once the onions are ready, add the marinated chicken to the pan. Cook the chicken until it's browned on all sides, ensuring it's cooked through and infused with the marinade.
4
Step 4
Lay the flour tortilla flat and place the cooked chicken and onions in the center. Roll the tortilla tightly to encase the filling, ensuring it holds its shape.
5
Step 5
Transfer the rolled tortilla to the oven and bake for 10 minutes. This will give the tortilla a crispy texture while keeping the inside juicy and flavorful.
6
Step 6
Once baked, slice the tortilla into portions and serve with a lemon wedge on the side for an extra zesty kick.
