Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell peppers, sautéing until softened, about 5-6 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low and add both soups, tomatoes with chiles, chicken broth, and all seasonings. Stir until well combined and simmer for 5 minutes.
Fold shredded chicken into the sauce mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Lightly toast the corn tortilla quarters in a dry skillet if desired.
Arrange one-third of the tortilla quarters in the bottom of your prepared baking dish. Top with one-third of the chicken mixture and 1 cup of cheese.
Repeat layering process twice more, finishing with remaining cheese on top.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown.
Let casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
