Steps

in fry pan heat oil over med-high heat, add cut up chicken, cook until chicken is done
2

add seasoning packet and water, turn down to low, simmer until thick
3

divide chicken into 8 portions(I just divide in the pan) place one serving of the chicken mixture in the middle of the tortilla
4

divide cheese into 8 portions, place one serving on top of chicken, fold tortilla over in half

heat pan to fry tortillas, I add just a touch of oil at a time to the pan, fry until tortilla is golden brown, then flip and fry the other side, when both sides are golden brown remove and place on a paper towel(brown paper sack works best), and slice into quarters and serve

I serve with sour cream, salsa
