Ingredients

  • 6 small flour tortillas

  • 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 1/4 cup sour cream (optional)
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with salsa and taco seasoning.
  4. Spoon the chicken mixture evenly into the tortilla cups.
  5. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of each cup.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the tortillas are golden and crispy.
