    1 Heat oil in a frying pan. Add chicken and cook, stirring all the time. Add beans and cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes. Be sure to stir to stop it sticking to the bottom of the pan.

    2 Warm tortillas in microwave (or wrap in foil and heat for 5 minutes in oven at 170ºC). Lay them flat on a board or bench and divide chicken mixture among them. Spread mixture out in a rectangle in the middle of each tortilla, then top with shredded lettuce, spring onions and cheese.
