Ingredients:

1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup chopped tomato
3 cup (1 lb) shredded cooked chicken

2/3 cup low-sodium tomato juice
12 6-inch tortillas

18-ounce can tomatillos, rinsed
1 1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
1 4-ounce can diced green chili peppers, drained

In a blender container or food processor bowl combine tomatillos, 1 cup of the onion, cilantro, chili peppers, cumin and pepper. Cover and blend till pureed then set aside.
In a non-stick skillet cook tomato and remaining onion for 3 minutes. Stir in chicken and 1 cup of the tomatillo mixture, then heat through. Spray a 3-quart rectangular baking dish with non-stick spray coating.
