You will need cooked & cooled chopped chicken. Room temperature cream cheese and refrained beans. 2 small bowls, 1 large baking dish 13/9 is best. A dipping dish like one you would use for French toast. CLEAN HANDS.
Please read entire recipe first before you start any recipe.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs of cooked, cooled and chopped Chicken
1 can refried beans
1 lb cream cheese
1 package corn tortillas (flour tortilla works best)
2 jars of green salsa verde
1 lb cheddar cheese
green onion as desired.
ok… Let’s start..
Step 1. Pour 1 jar minus 3 TBSP green verde in shallow dish, pour the 3 TBSPs in the baking dish and spread out to cover bottom. You will now take a corn tortilla and coat it in the shallow dish with the verde sauce. Continue until the bottom of dish is covered with tortillas. Break tortillas in half to use to cover bottom of dish. Only have a single layer of tortillas. Don’t overlap them.
Step 2. layer is the chicken and cheddar cheese. Place chicken to cover the bottom and put the cheddar on top of chicken.
Step 3. Layer tortillas again dipped in green verde and cover chicken.
Step 4. Put Cream cheese in bowl and mix with some salsa. Spread some cheese on top of cream cheese. Spread on top of tortillas until covered.
Step 5. (I know but it is worth it,I promise) place more dipped tortillas on top of cream cheese layer.
Step 6. Open cans of beans(regular works best) with some salsa and mix together in bowl. Spread this mixture on top of tortillas. Add cheese on top of this.
Step 7. Place more tortillas dipped in salsa and place on top of beans.
Step 8. Use the remaining tortillas to partially cover the beans or just place three on top dipped in salsa.
Step 9. Use green onion on top of tortillas if you desire.
You can use more or less cheese and salsa. This recipe comes out different every time I make it but it is always a hit. Bake at 350 for 60 minutes or until nice and bubbly. Cover with foil for 40 minutes. The last 20 minutes of bake time should be uncovered.
Had this amazing dish this week at a friend’s home, and it was so good my husband demanded to take home enough for another meal ~ he has never done this before!! We then found out that the recipe was here on Nans Blog!!!
Try it- you will like it!
Mary this dish can be layered anyway you like. You can even leave the top tortilla shells off. It is all up to you.
That’s the kind of recipe this is- you can add or subtract the ingredients and still come out with a great meal.
