2. Cut onions (it is better to use red: it is not as bitter as usual) cut into thin half rings.
3. Cut the tomatoes into slices. If they are not very large, then we just cut it into 4 parts.
4. Cut out the seeds and stalk of sweet bell pepper, divide into 4-5 parts.
5. Fry chicken fillets on a turbo grill with a non-stick coating (covered).
6. Fry all vegetables in the same way.
7. Cut the chicken into strips, transfer it to a bowl.
8. Remove the skin from the bell pepper and cut into small cubes.
9. On pita bread (you will use it instead of Mexican flatbread) we spread the meat, fried vegetables, beans. Add feta cheese if desired.
10. Pour everything with sauce (red or white), cover with lettuce and roll up the roll.
11. Fry the burritos on the turbo grill, just a little: so that the vegetables inside warm up, and beautiful stripes appear on the dough.

You can wrap anything in pita bread (according to this recipe): any meat, vegetables, cheese, corn, mushrooms - it will be unrealistically tasty.

Squeeze half a lime to them and mix everything, squeezing slightly. The picture should show that the onion has turned pink
