Ingredients:

•     3 Tortillas (Mexican tortillas)
•     150 g chicken fillets
•     ½ orange juice + 2 Tbsp
•     ½ tsp ground paprika
•     ½ orange zest
•     1 + 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
•     1 sprig (5cm) of rosemary
•     2 tsp sweet chili sauce
•     salt and black pepper
•     ½ sweet onion
•     150 g of lettuce (iceberg)
•     3 Tbsp mayonnaise
•     green onions

Directions:

1. Cut the chicken fillet into thin strips.
2. Lay fillets into a bowl, sprinkle with paprika, chopped rosemary, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, orange zest and juice. Mix the ingredients and refrigerate for 20 - 30 minutes.
3. Use a brush to apply water on tortillas and cut each into 4 pieces and shape them into little «baskets» by using a mold for muffins. To make a «basket», you need to turn the mold upside down, take a triangle and spread it over the protruding top, slightly pressing, so that the triangle takes sort of cone shape. Shape each tortillas triangle on the mold (or a cup) and bake in a preheated oven (175 C ) for 7-8 minutes.
4. Carefully remove «baskets» from the mold and put them on a rack. Cool completely.
5. Mix the mayonnaise with 2 teaspoons of orange juice
6. Remove chicken fillets from the marinade and dry with a paper towel
7. Preheat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a frying pan.
8. Fry the chicken breast for about 3 or 5 minutes.
9. Add chili sauce, salt and pepper, stir and transfer on a plate
10. Tear the lettuce up into small pieces, chop the onion and put it on the bottom of the «baskets»
11. Spread a little mayonnaise over the layer of lettuce and onion, then stuff in the chicken breast. Sprinkle with some more finely chopped onion.
