Create a mouthwatering chicken enchilada casserole by stacking shredded chicken with tortillas, sour cream, cheese, and smoky enchilada sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • garlic salt to taste
  • 18 (6 inch) corn tortillas, torn in half
  • 1 (28 ounce) can green chile enchilada sauce
  • 1 (16 ounce) package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 (8 ounce) container reduced fat sour cream
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a medium baking dish.
  • Season the chicken with garlic salt and place it in the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until fully cooked, with clear juices and an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C) when measured with an instant-read thermometer.
  • Gently shred and set aside.
  • Char each tortilla half over an open flame of a gas stove burner using metal tongs until lightly puffed, approximately 1 minute.
  • Cover the base of a medium baking dish with a generous layer of enchilada sauce, then neatly place 6 tortillas in a single layer on top.
  • Layer 1/2 of the chicken, 1/3 of the cheese, 1/2 of the sour cream, and 1/3 of the enchilada sauce on top.
  • Layer the remaining tortillas, thoroughly coat them with the remaining enchilada sauce, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top, and finish with any remaining enchilada sauce.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes until golden and bubbling. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
