Step 1

Place the chicken on a sheet tray and evenly coat it with salt on both sides.In a mortar & pestle, add the spices and grind them together.Heavily season the chicken with the spices on both sides.

Step 2

Set a griddle over high heat. Add a drizzle of oil.Once it’s hot, add the chicken and let it sear until well browned on each side.Check the temp to make sure they reach 165°F/74°C.While the chicken sears, start making the beans.

Step 3

Set a pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil.Add the jalapeños and garlic to the pan and let them toast for several minutes.Add the beans to the skillet and bring them to a simmer. As the liquid evaporates, half-mash the beans with a masher or spoon.Take the beans off the heat and add the juice from half of a lime.

Step 4

Prep any other filling components you are using: chop lettuce, shred cheese, and pull out the salsa and crema.Once the chicken is fully cooked, take it off the griddle and chop it up.

Step 5

Toss the tortilla in the microwave for a few seconds until warm.Place the tortilla on the work surface and add a layer of beans followed by the chicken. Next, add cheese, salsa, lettuce, onion, and crema.Roll it up & wrap it in foil to let it all steam together if desired. Enjoy!
