Ingredients:
• 2 large skinless chicken breast fillets
• 1 1/2 tbsp (20 mL) Cajun spice mixture
• Tabasco to taste
• 8 soft flour tortillas
• 1 papaya
• 1/4 cup (50 mL) olive oil
• Juice of 1 lime

Method:
1. Cut chicken breasts lengthwise into eight long strips. Sprinkle spice mixture over plate, add chicken strips and toss to coat. Sprinkle lightly with Tabasco, then set aside 5 minutes.
