Ingredients

  • 1 large can enchilada sauce
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Grease a large 9x13 casserole dish, spread out a small layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom. This will help your tortillas from sticking.
  • Lay out corn tortillas across the bottom of the pan- much like you would lasagna. I lay it out so there are no gaps- but it won't ruin it if there are.
  • Then layer more enchilada sauce, all the shredded chicken and some cheese.
  • Repeat with another layer of tortillas.
  • Spread the rest of the enchilada sauce, making sure to get all over the top of the tortillas- it keeps it from drying out.
  • Sprinkle cheese to the top and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
  • Serve and enjoy!
