Chicken Tortilla Casserole

Mexican is my favorite ethnic food and this is sure to be the first of many recipes I post with a Mexican flare. This easy to prepare casserole is cheesy and satisfying with a nice kick from the green chilies.

Makes 4-6 Servings

1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
3 cups cubed, cooked chicken breast
10 flour tortillas (6 inch)
1 (10 3/4 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 (4 oz) can chopped green chilies
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup salsa

In a saucepan, bring broth, onion and celery to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 7 minutes until veggies are tender. Pour broth mixture in a bowl and add the chicken, soup, chilies, 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup jack cheese and pepper. Mix well. Spoon a thin layer of mix over bottom of a greased 11 x 7 x 2 inch baking dish. Then fill each tortilla with a spoonful of mixture and roll up. Place rolled tortillas in a single layer in baking dish. Top with salsa and remaining cheeses. Bake uncovered, at 350 degrees for 35 minutes until heated through.
