Ingredients
 

  • 3 cups cooked chicken shredded
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon tomato paste
  • Salt and pepper
  • 8 soft corn tortillas
  • 1 avocado pitted and diced (tossed with lime juice and salt)
  • cup sour cream
  • 1 cup queso fresco crumbled
  • Tomatillo salsa
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken stock in a sauce pan, add the tomato paste, cumin, chili powder, and oregano. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and add the shredded chicken. Season with salt and pepper, cook for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Heat the tortillas on a nonstick skillet, then wrap them in aluminum foil to keep them warm.
