Ingredients

  • 1 24-ounce jar salsa verde
  • 1 cup half-and-half or cream
  • 8-10 medium flour tortillas
  • 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked and shredded
  • 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix the half-and-half and salsa verde together in a medium bowl.
  3. Set aside 1 cup of the mixture. In the bowl with the remaining salsa mix, add the shredded chicken and stir to coat the chicken thoroughly.

  5. On each tortilla, spread a thin layer of the salsa mixture, then scoop a large spoonful of chicken mix into the center of the tortilla and roll the tortilla up. Place in a 9x13 baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  6. Pour the leftover salsa/half-and-half mixture evenly over the pan. Top with shredded cheese.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until cheese is slightly browned and bubbly.
