Equipment

  • 1 9x13 casserole dish
  • 1 Bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 - 2 lbs Chicken Breasts Boneless Skinless, cut into strips
  • 1/3 cup Italian Dressing
  • 6 large Flour Tortillas TortillaLand we used, cook before adding to mix
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom
  • 4 oz diced chilies I used mild
  • 1/2 cup milk whole or 2% is best
  • 1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 small bell pepper diced
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes I like petite, with the juice from the can
  • 1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese more or less depending on preferences

Instructions

  • Cut chicken breasts into strips. 
  • Add to a bowl with your Italian dressing and coat all pieces. (can let sit and marinate in fridge for an hour for a stronger flavor) Drain residual dressing and add contents to pan on the stove over medium high heat. 
  • Cook until chicken is no longer pink, dice into smaller bite size pieces. 
  • Cook tortillas on stove top until they puff up signaling they are cooked, cut into long strips. (if tortillas are already cooked, skip cooking step and just slice)
  • Add diced chicken and tortillas into a bowl, then add all other ingredients except 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese. Stir so everything is coated.
  • Add to a 9x12 casserole dish that has been sprayed so your food won't stick. 
  • Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees, take foil off and sprinkle remaining cheese on top. 
  • Cook uncovered for another 10 minutes to allow top to bubble and become golden brown.
  • When done allow to sit when you take it out for at least 5 minutes to solidify a bit. Add chives to the top and serve!
