Discard cooking water.

  2. Shred cooled chicken with your fingers or 2 forks.

  3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shredded chicken, 2/3 of the salsa, corn, onion, garlic, jalapeno pepper, and cilantro, bring to a simmer. Cook until heated through, about 15 minutes. Spoon into tortillas and top with remaining salsa.
