Ingredients

  • 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded (about 3 cups chicken)
  • 1 (15 or 16 ounce) jar tomatillo salsa
  • 10 to 12 (6-inch) corn tortillas
  • 1 (6 ounce) bag shredded Mexican blend cheese (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • Sour cream for serving (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.









Grease a standard pie dish.

In a medium pan over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons canola oil. Add salsa and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until simmering, then remove from heat. Take 2 tablespoons of salsa out and toss with the shredded chicken. Reserve the rest.


With tongs, carefully dip the tortillas in the warm salsa one at a time and begin layering the pie. Create a complete bottom layer including up the sides of pan (about 4-5 tortillas). Then add half of the chicken and top with a third of the cheese, about 1/2 cup. Add another layer of dipped tortillas, chicken and cheese, then top with a final layer of dipped tortillas. Pour any remaining salsa on top of the tortillas, then top the pie with the remaining cheese.


Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.


Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream.
