ONE-PAN CHICKEN TORTILLA BAKE

What? You’re surprised I’m back with another one-pan meal? Let’s just accept that these are all I’m going to make from now on. I’m way too busy to do dishes these days.

This Chicken Tortilla Bake is spicy. I usually try to make everything on here pretty mild so the kids can eat it but this one you might not want the littles to eat. My bigger kids didn’t mind it at all.

I used soft flour tortillas. They’re great for layering in this dish.

The sauce in this dish is salsa verde or green salsa. It’s basically a quick way to get a lot of flavor in with just one sauce.

Roasted peppers, onion, garlic,…it’s all in there. Even the mild versions have kick. If you really want to make it for your little ones just sub green enchilada sauce for the green salsa.

I added some grilled corn and black beans for some extra flavor.
