Ingredients
- 2 flour tortillas
- 200 g smoked chicken slices
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 fresh cucumber
- 2 onions
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 3 tbsp egg-based mayonnaise
- 50 g salad lettuce
- to taste black pepper
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
Instructions
- 1Soften the onions

Place a pan over low heat with a small amount of oil, then add the sliced onions. Let them cook slowly until they become soft and translucent.
Tip: Keep the heat low to ensure the onions soften evenly without burning. - 2Caramelize the onions

Pour balsamic vinegar and brown sugar directly into the pan with the softened onions, cooking until the mixture caramelizes and develops a glossy sheen.
Tip: Stir continuously to help the sugar dissolve and coat the onions evenly. - 3Char the bell pepper

Place a whole red bell pepper directly over an open gas flame to char the skin evenly on all sides.
Tip: Use tongs to rotate the bell pepper frequently for an even char. - 4Wash the charred bell pepper

Hold the grilled bell pepper with tongs and rinse it under cold running water. Gently rub away the blackened, charred skin, remove the internal seeds, and pat dry.
Tip: Washing under a gentle stream of water helps easily strip away the burnt skin without tearing the flesh. - 5Slice the bell pepper

Place the cleaned bell pepper on a cutting board and slice it into thin strips.
Tip: Ensure your knife is sharp to get clean, even slices without tearing the tender flesh. - 6Slice the cucumber

Slice a fresh cucumber into thin strips on the cutting board to prepare it for the wrap filling.
Tip: Cut uniformly sized strips so they distribute evenly inside the tortilla wrap. - 7Spread mayonnaise on the tortilla

Take a room-temperature flour tortilla and place it on a clean cutting board. Spread an even layer of egg-based mayonnaise across the surface using a spatula.
Tip: Ensure the tortilla is at room temperature so it remains pliable and easy to roll tightly.
