For the marinade

- Let the meat marinate for at least 3-12 hours in the refrigerator.
For vegetables
- Add the vegetables to the bowl with the rest of the marinade that we have kept and mix well.
- In a large non-stick pan add the vegetables and sauté until caramelized, about 4-5 minutes.
- Remove the vegetables from the pan and keep them in a bowl.
- Cut the chicken fillets into thin slices and put them in the pan and sauté the chicken for about 3-4 minutes.
- Return the vegetables to the pan and stir.
For assembly
- Wrap the pies in foil and bake them in a preheated oven at 200ºC for 5 minutes to heat but not dry.
- Fill them with 2-3 tbsp. from our stuffing, guacamole, yogurt and cheese, we wrap up and enjoy.
