Servings: persons

1
Warm shredded chicken in a casserole in the oven splashing with olive oil and chicken stock beforehand so it doesn't dry out. Or just saute briefly in butter and/or olive oil. Keep warm.
2
Fry potato in olive oil and let brown a bit before clamping a lid on so they cook super quickly. They'll go sort of go sticky and fried and delicious! Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
3
While the chicken is warming and the potato is frying, scramble eggs to your liking (I like very soft, creamy eggs!!) Do you?
4
Place the tortilla on a flat surface and added shredded or torn bits of cheese over, then scrambled eggs in (keeping things in the middle) chicken in, salsa, potatoes, and chopped cilantro. Roll up burrito style and place in a medium-hot skillet with a bit of butter or olive oil and lightly toast on 2 sides.
5
Wrap in tin foil and and let rest while the coffee brews.....
