- 1/2 tablespoon butter , unsalted

Equipment
Instructions
- Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over half of the tortilla, leaving a little space around the edge so that it doesn't spill out during cooking. Sprinkle cheese over the sauce, then place the chicken and bacon on half the tortilla in a single layer. On the other side of the tortilla add the red onion and cilantro.
- Melt butter in a large skillet on medium heat, then add the prepared tortilla. Allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes. Once it's golden brown, flip the meatless side over to cover the chicken. Flip and cook until both sides are perfectly toasted to a beautiful golden brown.
