Ingredients:
For the tortillas:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup warm water
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
For the filling:
1 pound cookedmeat of your choice, such as chicken, beef, or pork
1 large onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup water
Instructions:
1. Make the tortilla dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Slowly add in the warm water and vegetable oil, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 3 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.
2. Prepare the filling
In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add in the chopped onion and bell pepper, cooking until they are soft and slightly browned. Add in the cooked meat and stir in the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pour in the water and let the mixture simmer for 5-10 minutes, until the flavors have combined.
3. Roll out the tortillas
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. On a floured surface, roll out each portion into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter.
4. Cook the tortillas
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until they are lightly browned and slightly puffed up. Transfer to a clean towel and cover to keep warm.
5. Assemble and serve
Place a spoonful of the filling onto one half of each tortilla. Fold the other half over to create a half-moon shape. Serve the tortillas hot with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
