Ingredients
2large flour tortillas
4eggs
2tbspmilk
100gcooked chicken
1/2bell pepper (capsicum), cut into small dice
1spring onion, finely sliced
60gblack beans
100ggrated cheddar
1tsphomemade Mexican spice mix- or taco seasoning
Salt and pepper
Oil
Chilli sauce, optional – I use Chu Chum Original
1avocado, diced
1tomato, diced
Crème fraîche, parsley, a few black beans and chilli flakes, to serve
Instructions
Whisk the eggs and milk together and season with salt and pepper.
Heat a little oil in two frying pans and divide the bell pepper, chicken and spring onion equally between the pans. Fry for a couple of minutes, season with the Mexican spice mix, salt and pepper, and turn the heat down low.
Spread the filling evenly across each pan and pour the egg mixture over, half in each pan.
Let the egg mixture set for a moment, then gently push the edges in towards the centre so the omelette is evenly round and slightly smaller than the tortilla.
Scatter the beans and grated cheddar over the top of the eggs.
If you want chilli in your tortilla egg wrap, spread one side of each tortilla with chilli sauce before laying the tortillas on top of the eggs, chilli side down.
Let the tortilla and egg fuse together for a moment before flipping them over and continuing to fry on the tortilla side until it is crisp – turn the heat up a little if needed. If the pan looks dry, brush the tortilla with a little oil before flipping.
Fold one side in towards the centre, then the other, so they overlap.
Lift your crisp tortillas onto a chopping board, turn them seam side down and cut them in half before serving.Top with ice-cold crème fraîche, parsley, tomato, avocado and chilli flakes.
