This was exceptional! I WILL be making this again. Just for the record, let me tell you what adjustments I had to make. I quickly wrote the recipe ingredients down instead of printing off the recipe. I put in one Tablespoon instead of 1 tsp of Cumin. I did not have zucchini (of which I love) and I did not have the Monterey Jack cheese so I replaced it with Mozzarella. BUT I melted it into the mixture and put it on fried whole tortillas. After one bite, my 16 year old "son from another mother" said "You have to make this more often".

Chicken and Corn Salsa over Crispy Tortillas, These are so much fun to make and so easy I guess it is a cross between a quesadillas or tostadas It is a great way to use up leftover chicken breasts or some rotisserie chicken It has a wonderful fresh flavor and some crispy tortillas make this a easy week night meal Make some spicy black beans and a crispy salad, and top the tortillas with some sour cream This was originally from a small cookbook a friend gave me a few years ago for a Christmas present , This was exceptional!

Steps

1
Done

Chicken -- in a Medium Sauce Pan, Add the Oil and Bring to Medium High Heat. Add, the Chicken, Cumin, Salt, Pepper, Onion, Corn, and Zucchini and Saute on Medium For 2-3 Minutes Until the Zucchini and Onion Begin to Soften. Stir in Salsa and 2 Tablespoons of the Cilantro and Cook Another Minute or Two Until the Liquid from the Zucchini and Corn Begins to Reduce.

2
Done

Tortillas -- Now, I Like to Cut My Tortillas in Half to Make Them Easier to Serve, but You Can Use Them Whole, or You Can Even Cut Them in Quarters If You Want. That Is Totally Up to You.

3
Done

Turn on the Broiler and on a Baking Sheet Add the Tortillas as Many as You Can Fit on the Pan and Spray With the Non-Stick Spray and Broil 2-3 Minutes Until Lightly Golden Brown. I Like to Line My Pan With Parchment Paper Which Clean Up Even Easier, but That Is Up to You.

4
Done

Top -- Remove from the Broiler and Top Each Tortilla With the Chicken Mixture and Then the Cheese. Return to the Broiler and Cook Until the Cheese Is Melted. Just Another Minute Is All It Should Take.

5
Done

Serve -- as I Mentioned, a Side of Spicy Black Beans, Salad and Maybe a Garnish of Sour Cream If You Want.

6
Done

They Are Flavorful, Inexpensive, Easy to Make, and Quick For a Week Night Dinner.
