Ingredients
1–2 Tbsp vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)
1 onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 poblano pepper, sliced
1 lb chicken breast, cut into thin strips or bite-size pieces
1 Tbsp garlic paste or minced garlic
1 packet taco seasoning or fajita seasoning
4 large burrito-size tortillas
3 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
Optional toppings:
Sour cream
Salsa
Shredded lettuce
Hot sauce
Instructions
Preheat the Blackstone griddle to medium heat.
Add a little oil or butter to the griddle and toss on the onion, red bell pepper, and poblano. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly softened.
Add chicken, garlic, and seasoning. Stir and cook for 4–5 more minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Push the mixture to one side of the griddle. Add more oil or butter to the empty side and place tortillas flat on the griddle.
On one half of each tortilla, sprinkle cheese, then spoon on the chicken and veggie mixture. Add a bit more cheese on top.
Fold each tortilla over and press gently with your spatula. Flip carefully and cook until golden brown and cheese is melted.
Remove, slice, and serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
Use hibachi spatulas for easier flipping and control.
Don’t overfill the tortillas to avoid spillage.
Swap in steak or shrimp for variety.
Great for meal prep—just reheat on the griddle or skillet!
