EASY MEXICAN CHICKEN BAKE
I got this recipe from my mother, and it is delicious. Even my picky three year old loves it! It uses tortilla chips to make it crunchy. It's very Mexican style, and quite cheesy!

MEXICAN CHICKEN BAKE (EASY CHILAQUILES)
I made this recipe for my in-laws and husband who are from Mexico. I was thinking it would be too "americanized" for their tastes, but they LOVED it. They told me that it tasted just like "chilaquiles", which is a dish that they make in a skillet and serve with eggs. Of course my versoin uses more practical ingredients, it's a true Mexican flavor. I serve it with a side of mexican rice, it's YUMMY!

Steps:
- In a skillet, heat oil, then add onion bell pepper and garlic, Saute until onions are almost translucent (this is especially delicious if you cook this in the same skillet that you cooked your chicken in). Set aside.
- In a bowl combine, soups, onion.bell pepper, chicken, salsa, chili powder, cayenne, (optional) couple dashes of hot sauce (I use Tapatio) & 1 1/2 cups of cheese; Mix well.
- In a baking dish (I used a square 9 x 9), grease with a little cooking spray, then lay out four tortillas overlapping. Pour 1/3 of mixture from bowl on top of tortillas. Repeat steps, finally ending with putting the last 1/2 cup of cheese on top.
- Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes or until bubbly. This is a great "freezer-meal", just wrap it up in a freezer dish, pop it in the freezer and thaw before you want to cook it, use the same cooking temp and time.
