Servings 4 - 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups @ 10 oz cooked Chicken, shredded and diced
  • 1 cup Creamed Corn from a can
  • 1 can diced Green Chilies I used mild Ro-Tel
  • 1 clove or 1 tsp Garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp Cumin ground
  • ½ tsp Oregano dried
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 12 - 14 8 inch soft Tortilla shells, flour or corn
  • ½ cup Cheese grated (I used a 4 cheese Mexican blend)
  • 1 - 2 tsp Hot Sauce optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and blend well.
  • Season to taste and adjust if needed.
  • Heat Tortilla shells in microwave for about 30 seconds, just enough to slightly warm them so they will be more pliable.
  • For each Tortillas, use about 1 Tablespoon of filling and place on shell.
  • Roll Tortilla over filling tightly and place on parchment lined baking sheet seam side down.
  • Bake in 350F preheated oven for 25 - 30 minutes or until shells start to turn golden.
  • Remove from oven and serve.

Notes

You can replace and omit ingredients as desired. Substitute shredded Chicken for Shredded Beef or Pork. Use a variety of roasted vegetables instead to make it vegetarian. Use or leave out the Creamed Corn. Add in a dollop of Sour Cream to make the mixture creamier. Make it as hot or mild as you like and ENJOY!
