Ingredients

  • Flour Tortillas (9, 8-inch)
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese (16 ounces)
  • Chopped Tomatoes (1 cup)
  • Chopped Green Onions (1/2 cup)
  • Chopped Cilantro (1/2 cup, optional)
  • Shredded Chicken (2 cups)
  • Pinto Beans (1 can, 15 ounces, drained)
  • Frozen Corn (1 cup)
  • Homemade Chipotle Sauce
  • Sour Cream
  • Lime Slices

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, tomatoes, beans, corn, green onions, and half of the cheese.
  • Place a tortilla on the sheet, add the chicken mixture, sprinkle with cheese, and fold.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas, ensuring they are packed with filling.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy.

For extra crispiness, brush tortillas with olive oil before baking.
These can be assembled in advance and baked later.
