Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-high and add the chicken, cumin, kosher salt, and fresh-ground black pepper. Cook for 10 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Take the chicken off the heat and mix it with the sliced mushrooms.
3.In a blender, mix together the sun-dried tomatoes, roasted garlic, jalapeno pepper, goat cheese, olive oil, kosher salt, and fresh-ground black pepper until smooth.
4.Lay the tortillas onto a work surface. Divide the chicken mixture over the tortillas and top with the spinach and sun-dried tomato-goat cheese mixture. Roll the tortillas tightly over the filling and place them seam-side down on a baking sheet.
5.Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and golden.
6.Serve hot with sour cream and pico de gallo.
