Chicken Tortilla Flutes [Rolls] - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 soft corn tortillas
    12 ounces cooked chicken, I use the cans of chicken occasionally (diced, works great)
    1 teaspoon mild chili powder (hot powder if you like hot)
    1 onion, chopped
    2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
    salt
    1 -2 tablespoon sour cream
    vegetable oil, for frying
    toothpick, for holding tortillas together once rolled up
Preparation
    Heat the tortillas in an unoiled nonstick skillet in a stack, moving the tortillas from the top to the bottom so that they warm evenly. Wrap in foil or a clean dish towel to keep warm.
    Place the chicken in a large bowl with the chili powder, half the chopped onion and cilantro, and salt to taste. Add enough sour cream to bind the mixture together.
    Arrange 2 corn tortillas on the counter so that they are overlapping, then spoon some of the filling down the center. Roll up very tightly and secure in place with a toothpick or two. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
    Heat enough oil for frying in a deep skillet until hot and fry the rolls until golden and crisp. Carefully remove the rolls from the oil and drain on paper towels.
    Serve with Guacamole, salsa, sour cream and remaining onion & cilantro.
