1. Preheat the broiler. Heat the oil in a medium skillet until hot and shimmering. Fry the tortillas, 1 at a time, until crisp and lightly browned on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Add additional oil, if needed. In the same skillet, cook the chicken breast until browned on both sides and opaque in the center, about 8 minutes total. Season with salt and pepper. Cut the chicken crosswise into thin strips. Reserve.
2. Put the tortillas on a large baking sheet and divide the cheese evenly on top. Run under the hot broiler until the cheese is melted, about 45 seconds. Remove from the oven. Arrange half of the chicken in the center of each tortilla. Top with salsa and sour cream. Garnish with a sprig of cilantro. Serve at once.
