Tortilla Base

Method

Tortilla Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    Add the vegetable oil and warm water to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough begins to form.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Rest the Dough

    Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 20 minutes.

Filling Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, black beans, corn, shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro. Mix well.

  2. 6

    Season the Filling

    Add salsa to the filling mixture according to your taste, then stir to combine.

Tortilla Cooking

  1. 7

    Roll Out the Tortillas

    Divide the rested dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten it into a disk about 6 inches in diameter.

  2. 8

    Cook the Tortillas

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned and cooked through.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Fill the Tortillas

    Place a generous amount of the filling in the center of each tortilla. Fold the tortilla over and press down gently to seal.

  2. 10

    Serve

    Serve the extra tortillas warm with additional salsa on the side.
