2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 pint sour cream
1/2 lb. Cheddar cheese, grated
1 dozen flour tortillas

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Toss together chicken, Jack cheese, and chilies. Mix together soup and sour cream. Heat salad oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Fry each tortilla very quickly on both sides (only to soften).
