01

In a large bowl, debone the chicken and shred the meat.

02

Add the barbecue sauce, sour cream, chopped green chiles, corn, red onion, garlic, both cheeses, and spices.

03

In a large pan over moderate heat, warm 1/4 cup of oil until it sizzles.

04

Meanwhile, put 2 tablespoons of the chicken filling into each tortilla, roll, and secure with a toothpick.

05

Working in 4 batches (wipe the pan clean and add 1/4 cup fresh oil between batches), pan-fry until the tortillas are golden brown and the mixture is warm, about 3 minutes per side.

Drain on a paper towel, transfer to a platter (or serve 2 per plate), and serve with your favorite salsa and guacamole.
