Directions

1In a bowl, add the chicken pieces, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, Cajun seasoning, and 1 tbsp oil.
2Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated.
3Heat a pan over medium heat with a little oil.
4Once hot, add the seasoned chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5Add the minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes, until fragrant.
6Add the diced onion, bell peppers, corn, and jalapeño (if using).
7Stir and cook for 3–4 minutes, until the vegetables soften slightly and chicken is cooked through.
8Lower the heat and add the cream cheese, lemon juice, and water.
9Stir until the cream cheese melts and forms a creamy sauce that coats the chicken and veggies.
10If the mixture seems too thin, simmer for 1–2 minutes until thickened.
11Taste and adjust salt if needed.
12Remove from heat.
13Preheat the oven to 400°F.
14Lightly brush one side of each tortilla with oil.
15Flip the tortillas over and spoon the chicken filling onto the un-oiled side.
16Sprinkle with cheese, then fold or gently press the tortillas closed.
17Arrange them on a baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and the cheese is melted.
