INGREDIENTS
For tortilla shells:

• 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
• 1 cup Mozzarella shredded

For filling:

• 1/2 lb chicken mince
• 1 shallot minced
• 1/3 cup low carb salsa (or Marinara Sauce)
• 1/2 tsp chili flakes
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp coconut oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup sour cream for serving
• chicken taquitos

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat coconut oil in a frying pan, add shallot and fry for 1-2 minutes, add chicken mince, cook for 3-4 minutes, stir in salsa or marinara sauce, chili flakes, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cook on low for 10-12 minutes.
2. Mix cheddar cheese and mozzarella in a bowl and divide this mixture into 4 parts. Fry each tortilla in a nonstick frying pan for 2-3 minutes or until cheeses melt. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining cheese.
3. Let cool for a minute, then start wrapping the filling inside the cheese tortilla: add chicken mixture on each shell and roll quickly. Serve immediately, topped with sour cream (optional).
