Flavorful taco-seasoned chicken and cheese fill crisp baked tortillas for an easy weeknight meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1012 small corn tortillas (5-inch) or flour tortillas
  • Cooking spray or neutral oil for brushing
  • 2 cups Mexican-style shredded cheese
  • 2 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie or cooked)
  • 10 oz can Rotel tomatoes & green chiles, drained
  • 2 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange tortillas on a large rimmed baking sheet in a single layer and spray or brush both sides with oil.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, drained tomatoes & chiles, taco seasoning, and lime juice until evenly coated.
  • Sprinkle half of the cheese over each tortilla, top with the chicken mixture leaving a small border, then finish with remaining cheese.
  • Bake uncovered for 10–12 minutes until the cheese melts and edges turn golden and crisp, rotating sheets halfway if needed.
  • Remove from the oven and fold each tortilla in half while warm. Serve with your favorite taco toppings.
