  INGREDIENTS:

  • 16, 6-inch corn tortillas 
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts (I cooked mine from frozen in the instant pot!)
  • 2-3 cups grated Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 block of cream cheese, softened,
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 
  • Olive oil 
  • More salt for sprinkling

  DIRECTIONS:

  1. Combine cream cheese, milk, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
  2. Shred the chicken and combine with cream cheese mixture.
  3. On a pancake griddle or in the microwave, warm tortillas on both sides and melt a few tablespoons of cheese on the top.
  4. Put about 3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture inside, then fold in half. Repeat with all 16 tortillas.
  5. Brush them lightly with olive oil and give them all a light sprinkling of salt on each side.
  6. Bake at 450°F for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with guacamole and Pico.
