3 8-inch flour tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese


Preheat oven to 350 F. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sautee onions and garlic in hot oil until onions are golden. Add jalapeno, cumin, salt and pepper; sautee for 30 seconds. Add flour to onion mixture; cook for about a minute. Add milk, being sure to stir, stir, stir. Remove from heat.

Spray the bottom of a 9" pie plate with cooking spray. Place 1 tortilla on the bottom, top with 1/3 of chicken mixture and 1/3 of cheese. Repeat layers ending with cheese.

Bake in a 350 F oven for 15-20 minutes or until cheese has melted.
