Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chicken chopped or shredded
  • 1 cup of your favorite salsa
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano leaves crushed (I'm not a fan of oregano so I left this out)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped (2) I used a yellow onion and sauteed it a bit.
  • 6 8 inch flour tortillas
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • diced tomato, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and shredded cheddar cheese for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Mix chicken, salsa, cumin, oregano, cheese and onions. Place about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
  • Fold opposite sides over filling. Roll up from the bottom and place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
  • Brush with melted butter. Bake at 400 for 25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  • Garnish with desired topping and serve with salsa on the side.
