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 low-boil covered on low to medium bring to temperature until chicken is cooked through, about 20 mins.
3
No liquid is needed, the chicken will low-boil in the Enchilada gravy.
4
Make sure you agitate 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
strew with ⅓ of the dairy topping and repeat starting with 2 more tortillas, then chicken, gravy, dairy topping.
12
Repeat with last layer with the remaining fixings, tortillas, chicken, gravy and dairy topping.
13
cook thoroughly for 20 to 30 mins uncovered, until bubbly and dairy topping has melted and started to brown on top.
14
dish up mildly hot.
