3 cups cooked chicken or turkey 

2 cups shredded cheese

1.  Place a tsp. of chiles and a tbsp. onion in the middle of a tortilla.  To that add a good amount of chopped chicken or turkey and sprinkle with cheese to taste.  Roll the tortilla and place in greased deep dish baking pan.  Do this with remaining tortillas, placing them side by side, until pan is completely filled.

2.  In a bowl, mix sour cream, soup, and remaining chiles.  Pour over the entire dish and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
