Taste & re-season if desired. Heat the chicken (covered with a paper towel) for 30-45 seconds in the microwave right before serving.
  3. Heat the flour tortillas, wrapped in a towel, for 30-45 seconds or until warm and pliable. Spread the chicken mixture down the center of the tortilla then top with lettuce, sharp cheddar, tomatoes, green onions, olives, and avocado. Serve with a side of salsa and sour cream if desired. Enjoy.
