This is always requested when all "the boys" come over for a game. You can make the filling ahead of time and just warm up before putting it in the tortillas. I serve this with sour cream, salsa and Zaar posted "Wholly Guacomole". Hope you enjoy!

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 count flour tortillas
1 -2 chicken breast (cooked and shredded)
4 ounces chopped green chilies
15 ounces goya black bean soup (drained and rinsed)
10 ounces sliced mushrooms (crumbled, not too small)
1 small yellow onion (chopped)
1/4 cup chunky salsa
8 -16 ounces shredded mexican cheese (depending on how cheesy you like it)
butter

Steps:

  • Add a tad of butter to a fry pan and add onions and mushrooms.
  • When all the water that was released from the mushrooms has evaporated, add the cooked chicken, salsa, green chiles and drained and rinsed beans. In case you are wondering, why rinse the beans? There is so much flavor packed into those little guys from soaking in the soup broth and you don't want a soggy tortilla. Anyhow, simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Lightly butter one side of the tortilla and place in frypan (medium-low), add just enough cheese for the filling to stick to. Add the warm filling and top with more cheese. Top with another tortilla that has been lightly buttered on the side facing up. When cheese has melted on the bottom, carefully flip.
  • Remove to plate when the other side has melted. I use a pizza roller to cut into 4 wedges.
