Notes
I use chicken tenders and cut them into bit size pieces. Bring a pot of water to a raging boil, season with pepper, garlic and what ever spice you like. Add chicken and cook. Maybe about 10-15 mins. Drain.
While the chicken is cooking, I make the sauce. Then add chicken.
I don’t always put the filling in the tortillas and bake. Just put the filling in a dish and cover with cheese and some picante sauce and bake.
Heat the tortillas and serve separate.
