Step 1

Heat oil or melt butter in a large pan or griddle over medium heat.

Step 2

Working quickly, add 1-2 tortillas to the pan and sprinkle about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese over each tortilla. Add 1/3-1/2 cup of shredded chicken, along with a couple of tablespoons of beans, and a generous sprinkle of chopped green onions and cilantro.

Step 3

Fold each tortilla in half on top of the fillings, then cook until golden brown on the bottom. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown, the cheese is melted, and the fillings are hot.

Step 4

Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, and filling ingredients.

Step 5

Slice into wedges and serve with sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo or salsa.
