1 can diced green chilis

2 Tablespoons green enchilada sauce or salsa

3. In a bowl, mix all other ingredients until well combined.

4. Lay 2-3 zucchini strips side by side, overlapping and place a large spoonful of the chicken mixture at one end of the strips. Roll the zucchini and chicken mixture to the end of the strip (like a tube), place in an 8x8 glass baking dish.
