1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup orange juice
1 tbsp lemon juice

Cut chicken breasts into strips 1/4-inch thick. Combine all sauce ingredients and pour over chicken strips. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

WHEN READY DO COOK:
Drain meat well and stir fry in oil along with onion and peppers until all pink color is gone from chicken pieces and vegetables are crisp-tender.

Trim sides from tortillas to form squares 5x5 or 6x6-inches. Brush outside of each with oil. Lay 4 tortillas on pocket grid oiled side down. Spoon chicken mixture into the triangle shaped pockets. Top with tortillas, oiled side up. Close lid and cook 3 minutes or until tortillas are heated through and sealed. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
