Method
- 1Slice everything the same width so it cooks at the same rate — chicken, peppers, onion, all about a finger wide.
- 2Chicken into the hottest pan first, spices straight on, 5 minutes without stirring much.
- 3Peppers and onion in, another 5. You want char marks, not softness.
- 4Lemon squeezed over the pan at the end — it lifts the whole thing.
- 5Into warm wraps with the cheese while everything is still hot enough to melt it.
