Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper; place in a 13-x 9- x 2-inch baking dish. Bake at 323 degrees for 20 minutes or until done; cool. Coarsely chop chicken, and set aside.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper and onion, and cook, stirring constantly, until crisp-tender. Remove from heat, and stir in coarsely chopped chicken, diced tomatoes with green chiiies, and soups.

Place one-third of the tortilla quarters in bottom of a lightly greased 13- x 9- x 2-inch baking dish; top with one-third of chicken mixture, and sprinkle evenly with 2/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese. Repeat layers twice, reserving remaining 2/3 cup of cheese.

Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes; sprinkle with reserved cheese, and bake 5 additional minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
