By Joan at 5:19 pm on Sunday, October 8, 2006

1 lb boned/skinned chicken breast
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt & pepper
4 flour tortillas (reduced-fat if you want to watch calories)
1 can (15 oz) black beans
1 tsp salad oil
1/2 cup (3 oz) soft goat cheese, -broken in, to small chunks
1 cup to 1 1/2 cups green salsa*

Instructions:

*To reduce sodium in the dish use low-sodium salsa

Cut chicken into 1/2″ by 3″ strips. In a bowl, coat evenly with cumin, salt, and pepper.

Seal tortillas in foil and warm in a 350F oven until hot, about 10 minutes.

Place beans and their liquid in a 1-quart pan and cook over med-high heat until bubbling, about 5 minutes.

In a 10-12″ nonstick frying pan over med-high heat, frequently stir chicken and oil until meat is no longer pink in center, about 6 minutes.

Lay tortillas flat. Toward 1 edge of each, fill equally with chicken, beans (including most of the liquid), cheese, and 1/2 c salsa. Fold over sides and roll up tightly to enclose. Add more salsa to taste.
