Ingredients:  
4 small or 3 large skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 T. oil
1/4 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. ground red pepper (adjust for your family's spice tolerance)
1/2 tsp. salt
4 oz shredded pepper jack cheese
1 can dark red kidney beans, drained
1 can corn, drained or
1 1/2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1/2 c. milk
Directions:
Directions:
Do all preparation work before starting to saute the meat. Drain the kidney beans and corn. Shred the cheese, have milk measured and ready to use.

Cut chicken breasts into cubes or bite size pieces. Combine flour, cumin, red pepper and salt. Coat the chicken pieces with the flour mixture. Heat oil in a saute pan. Brown the chicken until no longer pink in the center. Watch the pan closely to keep chicken from sticking, turning several times. (If the oil is hot to start, the chicken should not stick.) Add the milk to the chicken, stirring constantly until it thickens. Add the kidney beans and corn, combine with the chicken and heat through for 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cheese over the whole mixture, cover and heat on low until melted, 5-10 minutes.

Serve in flour tortillas with salsa and lettuce if desired.
