Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chiles, drained
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 10 (6 inch) corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
