Cooking Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat. Add the onion and chicken and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, oregano, cumin, cayenne, and season with salt and pepper. Cook another 5 minutes until the chicken is browned.
  • To assemble, cut down from the center of the tortilla to the edge. Spread the chicken in the bottom left corner, then add a handful of the lettuce, pickles, and cilantro on the top left corner. Spread the mustard on the top right corner, add the cheese and ham. Fold the chicken over the lettuce, then working clockwise, fold that quarter over the ham, and finally, fold that quarter over the bottom corner with cheese.
  • To make the jalapeño sauce, combine all ingredients except the mayo in a blender. Blend until smooth. Now add the mayo and season with salt. Pulse to combine.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet, add 1 wrap and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until crisp and golden brown. Serve warm with jalapeño sauce.
