Cook onion in butter until tender but not brown. Stir in chicken, 1/4 c. of salsa, cream cheese and cumin. Heat through. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 c. of cheese. Heat about 1/2 inch oil in small skillet until hot but not smoking. Quickly fry each tortilla in oil to soften, about 2 seconds each. Drain on paper towels.

Personal Notes:
I go heavier on the salsa and cheese on top. I also have sprayed PAM on the frying pan and just warmed the tortillas instead of frying them to cut down on the fat.
