Expert Tips

Make a quick chicken tortilla sandwich by cooking just the chicken breasts as directed. Spread 4 tortillas each with 2 tablespoons salsa and sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese to within 1 inch of edge. Place chicken breast in center, and fold sides of tortilla over chicken. Microwave briefly to melt cheese.

    As promised this was quick and easy to make and very tasty. I used 1 tsp of the chili powder, but I would use 2 tsp (or even more)next time. I think I would also add a little more salsa.
