1 tsp paprika
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1 lime, juiced
1 1/2 cup shredded chicken

10 large flour tortillas
2 cups shredded cheese

3. Separate the vegetables in two medium bowls. To one bowl, add the shredded chicken and to another bowl, add the black beans. Stir each bowl until everything is incorporated.
4. Cut a tortilla in half with a pizza cutter or knife. Put a spoonful of one of the fillings in the center of the tortilla half and sprinkle with cheese.
