Ingredients
Scale
Tortillas:
- 6 Extra Thin Corn Tortillas, I used Mission
Filling:
- 6 oz Cooked Chicken Breast, chopped or shredded (or your choice of filling)
- 1/2 cup (56g) Shredded Cheddar, or your choice of cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Prepare the tortillas: Wrap the tortillas in a slightly damp paper towel and microwave for 45-60 seconds, flipping halfway through. This will make the tortillas easier to fold.
- Add filling: Add the chicken and peppers (or your choice of filling) to one half of each tortilla. Top with cheese before folding over. Gently press down to seal each taco. If there are any tears in the tortillas, microwave for another 15-30 seconds.
- Press and bake: Place a baking sheet or flat surface with some weight on top of the tacos to press them down. Bake for 8-12 minutes until tortillas are golden brown. Be cautious not to burn them.
