Feeds 2 people

Ingredients: 

-4x Tortillas

-1 cup of Mexican Cheese

-3 Tbsp Garlic Powder (2 and 1)

-2 Tbsp Cumin seasoning

-1 Tbsp Chipotle seasoning

-1 Tbsp Jalapeno seasoning (Personal Preference. Leave it out if you don't like spicy.)

-1 12.5 oz can of chicken

-1 Whole onion

-5-6 Baby Bella Mushrooms

-3 Tbsp of salted butter

(Optional)

-Sour Cream and Salsa to taste

Instructions Before Cooking:

1. Dice the onion into small to medium sized bits.

2. Cut the mushrooms into 3-4 slices per mushroom. 

3. Open the can of chicken and season it with the 3 Tbsp of garlic, 3 Tbsp of cumin, 2 Tbsp of chipotle and 1 Tbsp of jalapeno. (You can use less if you do not like it that spicy. Feel free to also add aditional to any of the above seasonings to taste. Taste the chicke before you finish seasoning it.)

Cooking Instructions:

1. Heat a pan on a stove at medium heat.

2. Start by cooking the mushrooms with 3 Tbsp of butter and 1 tbsp of garlic powder. Cook until the color slightly darkens and the mushrooms are soft, juicy and tender. Then remove from the pan.

3. Put the diced onions and cook until caramelized and brown. You can turn the stove up to higher heat to hasten this process but be careful to not burn the onion.

4. Next, put the mushrooms back in the pan and then put the chicken together with it all to mix and heat. 

5. Once the mixture of onion, mushroom and chicken is heated to desired temp, remove from the pan.

6. Turn the stove to medium low heat if you turned it up for the onions and place a tortilla directly into the pan and sprinkle 1/4 a cup of cheese onto the tortilla. 

7. Place 1/2 the chicken mixture onto the tortilla and spread to the edges with a spatula or cooking spoon.

8. Then sprinkle another 1/4  cup of cheese on top of the chicken mixture.

9. Place another tortilla on top of the chicken and cheese. 

10. Cook on one side for 2-3 minutes or until properly browned (Should be toasted not burned.) Check periodically to not overcook.

11. Once toasted, flip and cook on the other side for 1-2 minutes until toasted. 

12. Repeat the same steps as above for the second one. Serve and enjoy!!!
