Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 chicken breast cooked and shredded rotisserie
  • 1 cup salsa verde see separate recipe
  • 6 corn tortillas homemade are best
  • ½ cup jack cheese
  • ¼ cup white onions chopped
  • ¼ dcup cilantro chopped

Instructions
 

  • This is one of those recipes that is perfect for pre-cooked rotisserie chicken from your local market. If not available, then just cook two chicken breast until done and shred them. Boiling them is fine. Sous-vide is also a good option.
  • Cut the chicken across the grain and then shred it.
  • Add the chicken to a non-stick fry pan over medium heat. Add about a cup of salsa verde to the shredded chicken and stir. Don't be stingy with the salsa. The chicken will absorb a lot.
  • Heat up the tortillas. I like to heat them on a non-stick griddle over medium heat for about two minutes per side. Alternatively, just make fresh tortillas. They are much better and easy to make.
  • Scoop some chicken into a tortilla and top with jack cheese. Sprinkle with chopped onions and cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
