Step 3

Divide the chicken strips among the flour tortillas, placing them down the center of each tortilla. Top w/ the sour cream mix, sprinkle w/ some of the cheese. Roll them up and place them, seam side down in the baking dish. Sprinkle w/ remaining cheese and cover w/ foil. Bake 30 mins, or until bubbly. Spoon the salsa down the middle, then sprinkle w/ chopped tomato. Garnish w/ cilantro, if you like. Serve w/ extra sour cream and black olives.
