Green Chile Stacked Enchiladas
A delicious layered casserole of corn tortillas, chicken, cheese, and enchilada sauce.
Ingredients
- vegetable oil (1 tablespoon)
- corn tortillas (16 (6 inch))
- boneless skinless chicken thighs (4 )
- onion (0.5 )
- diced mild green chiles (0.5 cup)
- green chile enchilada sauce (1 (28 ounce) can)
- shredded Monterey Jack cheese (1 (8 ounce) package)
- shredded mozzarella cheese (4 ounces)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tortilla; press and swirl in skillet until softened, about 2 to 3 seconds per side. Transfer to a plate and repeat the process with additional tortillas until all are softened, stacking them as you go.
- Add chicken and onion to the skillet; cook and stir until chicken is about 2/3 done, about 10 minutes. Add green chiles and cook until chicken is no longer pink and onions are tender, about 5 to 10 minutes more.
- In a 9x13-inch baking dish, layer some tortillas to cover the bottom, then add a layer of the chicken mixture, followed by enchilada sauce, Monterey Jack cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Repeat layering with the remaining ingredients, finishing with sauce and cheese on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool until set, about 5 to 10 minutes.
