Ingredients
Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast, 1.5 lbs Red Enchilada Sauce, 4 cup Colby Jack Cheese, 3 cup, shreddedRed Spicy Salsa, 1 cup (I buy fresh made salsa from a local taqueria)Corn Tortillas, 18 tortillas
Remove any fat from the raw chicken and boil until cooked through, no longer pink and very easy to break apart. This can also be done in a crock pot by cooking on low throughout the day.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Chop or shred chicken into very small pieces.
In a large bowl mix chicken with salsa and salt and pepper to taste.
Spray a 9 x 12 baking pan with PAM or any non-stick cooking spray.
Cover bottom of pan with a thin layer of enchilada sauce and layer ingrediants as follows:
6 tortillas
enchilada sauce to coat
1/2 the chicken mixture
1 cup of cheese
6 tortillas
enchilada sauce to coat
remaining chicken mixture
1 cup of cheese
6 tortillas
enchilada sauce to coat
remaining cheese
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30-45 minutes or until heated through. If the cheese on top starts to brown too quickly cover with alumuninum foil.
Cut into 12 squares and enjoy!
**Also yummy with verde enchilada sauce and salsa.
