mix chopped up peppers and onions in oil and garlic and chilli if you have it - or herbs

roast in oven at 200c for 10 mins

plonk chicken breast on top and roast for further 30 mins

do you have any bacon?

wrap the bacon round the chicken if yes (I use parma ham too)

serve with rice

make tortilla wraps, enid? how cool, i'd love to do that. do you have a recipe other than 'flour and water'?
do you freeze them or make fresh every time?

This is nice: fry two onions (or more if you like them!) for a long time - at least 10min - (until soft and caramelized), put in garlic and peppers after about five minutes. Add two chopped up chicken breasts, stir until white. Add a good splash of balsamic vinegar, let bubble until evaporated and chicken etc is coated. Add a bit of stock, let simmer until cooked - it should not be too wet. Or you can add half a can of tomatoes if you have them and prefer a more tomatoey sauce. I serve with rice and veg but could serve with pasta.

If you don't fancy a random chicken sauce thing with pasta or rice, try one of the recipes in this thread.
