2In a large bowl, cut or tear chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add remainng ingredients, reserving 1 cup of the grated cheese to put on top. Mix well. Use juices from chicken to moisten ingredients, if needed.

4*If you like a lot of heat, add canned chopped jalapenos and additional spices to taste. **I don't like biting into onion chunks, so I use 1-1/2 T. dry, minced onion.
