Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cups Cooked Shredded Chicken I used a rotisserie chicken
  • 1 oz Taco Seasoning
  • 19 oz Can of Red Enchilada Sauce divided
  • 4 oz Can of Diced Chilies
  • 1/4 Cup Sour Cream
  • 8 oz Shredded Sharp Cheddar
  • 8 oz Shredded Pepper Jack mix the two cheeses together
  • 16 Taco-Sized Flour Tortillas
  • 1-2 Cups Vegetable Oil for frying the tortillas
  • 16 oz Can of Refried Beans
  • 1-2 Tomatoes diced for garnish
  • 3-4 Sliced Green Onions for garnish

Method
 

  1. Shred the rotisserie chicken and mix with taco seasoning, 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce, the green chilies, sour cream, and 1 cup of the mixed cheese.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium high heat and fry the tortillas until golden brown and crispy. This takes just a minute or two per side. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Assemble by spreading refried beans on one tortilla, topping with a couple spoonfuls of the chicken mixture, a bit of the cheese, and placing another tortilla on top.
  4. Spread about 3 tbsp of the enchilada sauce over the top tortilla and sprinkle with more cheese.
  5. Bake at 400°F for 10 minutes until cheese is melted.
  6. Garnish with diced tomatoes and green onions.
