Servings:<\/strong> ~4\u20136
\nCuisine:<\/strong> Southwestern \/ New Mexican<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • 10\u201312 corn tortillas<\/strong>, lightly fried or warmed (helps them hold up)<\/li>\n
  • 1\u20132 cups roasted green chiles<\/strong> (Hatch or Anaheim), peeled & chopped<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2\u20131 cup chopped white onion<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • 2\u20133 cloves garlic<\/strong>, minced<\/li>\n
  • 3\/4\u20131 1\/2 cups shredded cheese<\/strong> (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)<\/li>\n
  • Oil<\/strong> for frying or coating skillet<\/li>\n
  • Seasonings:<\/strong> Mexican oregano, garlic salt, black pepper (to taste)<\/li>\n
  • Optional add\u2011ins: cooked shredded chicken or pork, beans, sour cream for serving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Instructions<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Prep Tortillas:<\/strong>
      \nWarm or lightly fry<\/em> the corn tortillas in a bit of oil just until soft and pliable. This prevents sogginess once baked.<\/li>\n
    2. Assemble in Cast Iron:<\/strong>
      \nBrush your cast iron skillet with a little oil. Place a layer of tortillas in the bottom.<\/li>\n
    3. Add Layers:<\/strong>
      \nSprinkle chopped green chile, onions, garlic, and cheese over the tortillas. If using meat, add that here too.
      \nRepeat layers until ingredients are used up, finishing with a generous layer of cheese on top.<\/li>\n
    4. Season:<\/strong>
      \nSprinkle Mexican oregano, garlic salt, and black pepper over the top to taste.<\/li>\n
    5. Bake:<\/strong>
      \nBake in a preheated oven at ~375\u202f\u00b0F (190\u202f\u00b0C)<\/strong> for ~25\u201330 minutes<\/strong>, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are slightly crisp.<\/li>\n
    6. Serve:<\/strong>
      \nLet rest a few minutes, then serve straight from the skillet topped with sour cream, extra chile, cilantro, or lime wedges<\/strong> as desired.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \u00a0Tips<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • More heat?<\/strong> Add extra roasted chiles or a pinch of cayenne.<\/li>\n
      • Meaty version:<\/strong> Stir in shredded chicken or pork for protein.<\/li>\n
      • Tortilla texture:<\/strong> Light frying creates a barrier that keeps tortillas from getting soggy with sauce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
