Description

Ingredients

• 3 cups cooked chicken, chopped or shredded
• 1 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa
• 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
• 1 1/5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 6 (8’’) uncooked flour tortillas, I prefer the tortilla land brand
• olive oil or nonstick cooking spray
• 3 tablespoon butter
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 tsp minced garlic (about 1 clove)
• 2 cups low sodium chicken broth warmed
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano leaves, crushed
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 4oz. can mild chopped green chilies
• 1/3 cup cheddar cheese, plus more for topping on burritos
• 1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Mix chicken, salsa, cumin, oregano, cheese and onions. Place a heaping 1/2 cup or so of the chicken mixture in the center of each tortilla.
• Fold the sides of the tortilla in and roll up like a burrito. Place seam-side down on baking sheet.
• Brush lightly with olive oil or spray with non stick cooking spray.
• Bake at 400°F for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
• Meanwhile, prepare sauce by melting butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once melted and bubbling, whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly for about 3 minutes. Add minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Gradually whisk in chicken broth. Add cumin, oregano, and a dash of salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in green chilies, cheese and sour cream. Tastes and add more seasonings if needed.
• Remove burritos from oven and turn the oven to HIGH broil. Ladle a spoonful of sauce over each burrito and top with a handful of shredded cheddar cheese. Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese has melted. Enjoy!
