Ingredients:

  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 10.5 oz condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 4 oz canned diced green chilies
  • 4 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast
  • 11 soft flour tortillas (standard taco size)
  • 2 cups freshly shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions:

  1. Whisk the base. In your largest mixing bowl, combine the 8 oz sour cream, 10.5 oz condensed cream of chicken soup, and 4 oz green chilies. If it feels like heavy paste, whisk in the 0.5 cup chicken broth one tablespoon at a time. You want it silky and pourable.
  2. Prep the station. Lightly grease your 23x33 cm baking dish. Ensure your oven is preheated to 175°C (350°F).
  3. The dipping trick. Take one flour tortilla and dip it completely into the sauce bowl. Coat both sides. Note: This hydrates the starch in the flour, preventing the tortilla from snapping when you roll it.
  4. Fill the center. Lay the coated tortilla flat. Place a generous mound of shredded chicken and a pinch of Monterey Jack cheese down the middle.
  5. Roll and tuck. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling. Place it into the baking dish seam side down so it stays closed without toothpicks.
  6. Repeat the process. Continue until all 11 tortillas are snuggled tightly into the pan. They should be touching; this helps them steam and stay soft.
  7. Smother with sauce. Pour every drop of the remaining sauce over the top. Use a spoon to push it into the gaps and ensure the edges of the tortillas are fully covered.
  8. Add the crust. Sprinkle the rest of the 2 cups of Monterey Jack over the top in an even layer.
  9. Bake until golden. Slide the pan into the oven for 20 minutes. You are looking for the cheese to be violently bubbling and bronzed at the corners.
  10. Finish and rest. Let the pan sit for 5 minutes before topping with cilantro, avocado, and lime. This allows the sauce to set so it doesn't run everywhere.
