Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200o F. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy clean up and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a medium skillet. Add onion and garlic, cook for 2-3 minutes until onions are beginning to soften. Season with salt and pepper. Add the diced tomatoes and green chilies. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook about 3-4 minutes to reduce the liquid. Remove from heat, add the fresh lime juice.
- In a large bowl add the shredded chicken, beans, fresh chopped cilantro, the tomato mixture and shredded cheese. Mix gently with a rubber spatula until thoroughly combined.
- In 12-inch skillet heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Place 1 rounded tablespoon of chicken filling on 1/2 of a tortilla and flatten so that it covers out to the edges. Place 4 tortillas in the skillet and allow to heat for about 15 seconds to soften. Fold tortilla in half covering filling, press top down firmly. Fry until golden brown (1-2 minutes), flip over and fry other side another 1-2 minutes. Remove from skillet and place on foil lined baking tray. Sprinkle lightly with salt and place in warm oven. Continue until all the filling is gone (makes about 36 tacos).
- Transfer tacos to a serving platter and enjoy with a side of your favorite Red Gold Salsa!
