Chicken Verde

This is a recipe i have made for a number of years. I know there are similar recipes which use condensed soup (i.e. Cream of chicken). I find the soup to salty for my taste. I decided to use the flour and chicken broth mixture and accenting the flavor with oregano. I have taken this to church potlucks with great success. My wife and i usually have 1 tortilla a piece with a salad. The remaining one will go to work with my wife the next day.

Steps

Brown chicken pieces-set aside to cool.
Dice chicken when cooled.
Saute onion till translucent.
Put chicken back into skillet- add the flour , stirring till flour disappears.
Add oregano and cook till aromatic.
Add chicken broth to mixture to thicken.
Cook 1-2 minutes-then add the diced green chiles.
Warm mixture through.
Put tortillas in microwave and microwave each one about 25-30 seconds.
Remove tortilla and put the chicken mixture in and fold the tortilla seam side down.
Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Put tortillas in a casserole dish and sprinkle the cheese on top.
Put the casserole into a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes till cheese melts and tortillas are heated through.
