  Preheat oil in a cast iron skillet for 2 minutes over medium high heat. Add onion and sauté for 1 minute. Add garlic and continue to cook for an additional 30 seconds. Pour in blended sauce, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly. Add chopped chicken and continue to simmer for 3 to 5 minutes or until chicken has absorbed the sauce. Divide into 4 portions and keep warm until needed.

  Preheat a nonstick griddle for 1 minute over medium heat. Place ¼ cup Oaxaca Cheese on the griddle and sear for 45 seconds to 1 minute to allow the cheese to form a single caramelized layer. Top cheese with a warmed tortilla and press down lightly so that the melted cheese adheres to the tortilla. Repeat this step for the remaining tortillas.
