Delicious and perfect for a quick, light meal. Rather than thighs, I used chicken breasts that I had pre-cooked, so it cut down on the prep time. I had no green chiles, but wish I had since we love them. On 8 inch tortillas, there was enough chicken mixture for 4 servings which, of course, would increase the pts. The salsa-type topping gave the perfect zing to the sweet saucy chicken. Thanks Andrea! MERP'd for Zaar Chef Alphabet tag.

<p>I currently live in West Virginia. I have two daughters, 10 and 7 yrs. I teach 4th grade at the small elementary school that they attend.<br /><br />Shortly before the birth of my youngest daughter, I started becoming interested in cooking, with great thanks to this site. I love trying new things. I used to collect cookbooks, and I still have quite a few, but since I've been a member of food.com, I have to admit that I don't use them much anymore. This is so much easier! <br /> <br />In addition to cooking, I enjoy spending time with my girls, reading, and shopping. I'm also a big Virginia Tech fan, hence my user name. It's where I went to school, so my loyalty lives on! </p>
