A quick dinner or snack for hungry family members.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 22 minutes
Servings 6
Ingredients
- 1 cup chicken or rotisserie chicken cooked and shredded or chopped
- 1 can diced green chiles drained well
- 1 can black beans rinsed and drained well
- 1 can black olives drained well and sliced
- 1/4 cup green onion sliced
- red pepper flakes to taste-optional
- 1 1/2 cups cheese grated (more if desired)
- 6 flour tortillas (taco size) cut into fourths and cut some of the rounded edges off- do not cut them too small.
- sour cream, chopped cilantro and/or salsa to garnish
Instructions
-
Spray two muffin pans with cooking spray. (we like to use square muffin tins but, round work also).
-
Place cut flour tortillas into the bottom of the muffin cups-to make a cup.
-
Evenly as you can, distribute the chicken, green chilies, black beans, olives, green onion and red pepper flakes between the 24 cups.
-
Top each cup with some grated cheese.
-
Bake in a pre-heated oven, 350 degrees. Bake for 11-12 minutes. I like them to be toasty on the edges.
-
Remove from the oven and then, remove them from the muffin cups. Top with sour cream, cilantro and salsa, as desired. Serve hot. Enjoy!
