Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 onion, sliced into rings
1 tablespoon honey
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
½ cup barbeque sauce
½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a large, deep skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium high heat. Slowly cook and stir onion until translucent. Mix in honey. Stir until onion is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
