Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup salsa verde
  • 1 cup cooked rice white or brown
  • 1 can 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn fresh, frozen, or canned
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 avocado diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Brush both sides of the tortillas with olive oil and place them in a muffin tin to form bowls. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, salsa verde, black beans, corn, and cherry tomatoes. Stir well to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. In each tortilla bowl, layer 1/4 cup of cooked rice, followed by the chicken mixture.
  4. Top each bowl with diced avocado, shredded cheddar cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
  5. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
