- In medium sized pan, heat 2 teaspoons of oil.

- In a microwavable bowl, add the ground beef and all the ingredients listed under the ground beef and place the bowl in the microwave for 4 minutes.
- Combine the chicken and the ingredients listed below the chicken in a bowl and mix until the chicken is thoroughly coated in the mayonnaise, bbq sauce , tomato sauce, black pepper and sugar. Set the bowl aside.
- To make the quesadilla, add the cubed tomatoes, red onions and black pepper to a bowl. Squeeze the lemon juice into the bowl and ensure that all the vegetables are coated.
- To assemble the burritos, microwave the tortillas for 30 seconds (so that they do not break while folding them).
- When they are warm, place one tortilla on a flat cutting board.
- Spread about a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the surface of the tortilla.
- Place three tablespoons of the rice in the centre ( arranged in a rectangular shape), followed by 2 tablespoons of the chicken on top of the rice then 2 tablespoons of the quesadilla before adding 2 tablespoons of the mince.
- Fold the right and left side of the burrito first.
- After that,gently fold the tortilla from the top to the bottom .
- Repeat that for the remaining tortillas.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a hot pan.
- Place each wrap in the pan for about 30 seconds on each side (so that the wraps get a slightly golden colour ).
- Using a sharp knife inorder to get a clean cut, cut 3 of the wraps in half.
- Place mayonnaise in a drizzling bottle, and squeeze it out in circular motion around the plates. (The circles don’t need to be perfect)
- To plate, start by placing a full burrito on each plate.
- Then, place one of the cut burritos at an angle against the full burritos, on each plate.
- Finally, place a few tablespoons of the remaining quesadilla in each plate, before garnishing with parsley and 2 lemon wedges and dinner will be ready!
