Ingredients

  • 14 oz jar Enchilada sauce
  • 3 Cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 6 corn tortillas
  • 2 chicken breasts

Instructions

1
Cut each chicken breast in about 3 pieces, so that it cooks faster and put it in a small pot.
2
transfer Enchilada gravy over it and make covered on low to medium bring to temperature until chicken is cooked through, about 20 mins.
3
No moisture is needed, the chicken will make in the Enchilada gravy.
4
Make sure you swirl around occasionally so that it doesn't stick to the bottom.
5
Remove chicken from the pot and shred with two forks.
6
Preheat oven to 375 F degrees.
7
Start layering the casserole.
8
Start with about ¼ cup of the leftover Enchilada gravy over the bottom of a baking dish.
9
I used a longer baking dish, so that I can put 2 corn tortillas across.
10
Place 2 tortillas on the bottom, top with ⅓ of the chicken and ⅓ of the remaining gravy.
11
scatter with ⅓ of the cheddar and repeat starting with 2 more tortillas, then chicken, gravy, cheddar.
12
Repeat with last layer with the remaining components, tortillas, chicken, gravy and cheddar.
13
oven-cook for 20 to 30 mins uncovered, until bubbly and cheddar has melted and started to brown on top.
14
offer toasty.
