Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 8 small flour tortillas
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup diced green chilies
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the corn, green chilies, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Mix in the shredded chicken and half of the sour cream. Remove from heat.
  • Spread a small amount of chicken broth in the bottom of a baking dish. Fill each tortilla with the chicken mixture, roll up, and place seam-side down in the dish.
  • Combine the remaining sour cream and chicken broth in a bowl, then pour over the rolled tortillas.
  • Sprinkle with Monterey Jack and Parmesan cheeses.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a healthier option.
  • Add a bit of hot sauce to the filling for an extra kick.
