Quick recipe for ingredients already in the house. Also try adding cream cheese or Neufchâtel for a creamier version. Great over rice!

Add a can of drained and rinsed black beans, and one cup of frozen corn, in the last hour of cooking.  I doubled the recipe, and started with one cup of homemade chicken stock to start. I cook it down at the end without the lid.  I roll half the mixture up into toritllas and pack it into a large lasagna glass pan.  Freezes well.  Cover the 10 to 12 tortillas in foil and place in 350 oven for approx 30 minutes.  Now remove foil, spread 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese over top, turn the oven up to 400 and let bubble for approx 15 minutes.

I replaced the chicken breasts with boneless skinless chicken thigh, used green salsa, not red. That is what I had in the fridge. Added thick sliced jalapeños and red onion. 

I like things on the spicy side, and this did just that. 

WOW, what a great meal...

Great for quick quesadilla on the stovetop just add cheese and flour tortillas.

So easy and so quick! Made this last night for some burritos. I reduced the amount of salsa a bit and they were still super flavorful!

I used ten skinless chicken thighs, made my own taco seasoning mix doubled, added two cans Great Value small diced tomatoes with Chile's, let cook on high in slow cooker for three hours and then without lid for one more hour to cook up juices.
We ate them on white corn tortillas with shredded cabbage, onions, cilantro, tomatoes, jalapeños and queso fresco.
Well they must have been good, ain't nobody complaining!

Sounds like this would be good as enchilada filling with lots of cheese!

What an easy recipe! And the taste was absolutely delish!! My daughter an I put this over brown rice. Will definitely make again!
