Recently made Quesadillas for the first time so this sounded really good. After I took this out of the oven I added to the top 1/2 sliced green bell pepper,1 chilli, one sliced tomato, a 1/2 cup sliced black olives and then put the sour cream on top. It was divine. Thanks for posting =)

Really yummy! I added scallions on top and served with sour cream. This one is a keeper! I skipped cutting the tortillas into strips and frying them in oil. The first time I made it I did. The second time I made it I just sprayed PAM in the frying pan and lightly browned each tortilla for about 1 minute on each side. Then tore 2 of them into pieces and overlapped them to cover the bottom of the casserole dish. Then I put on the chicken and salsa mixture and then two more torn tortillas then sprinkled on the cheese. The pieces I tore were large - about 3 or 4 inches. So it turned out to be a lot easier doing it that way and less fat by not cooking the strips in oil with almost no difference in taste. Overall a great recipe. Freezes well too

Great way to use up leftover roast beef, also. I will definitely make this again with other leftovers. By the way - the fried tortillas are very tasty just on their own, or dipped in salsa!

This was really good but I changed/added some ingredients. I cooked the chicken breast with prepackaged taco seasoning and shredded it, then added it back to the pot and threw in a small can (4oz) of green/tomatilla sauce medium heat. I deep fried corn tortillas, put them at the bottom, layered with mixed cheddar and mozzarella cheese, added a layer of black beans, the shredded meat mixture, and more cheese. Baked it until cheese was melted through (15 min) and served garnished with sour cream and pico. Served also with a side salad.

I wasn't able to eat this myself because of my diet, but my kids adore Mexican food, so I made it for them. They absolutely loved it and made sure that I printed it for my recipe book.

This was a delicious way to use up leftover chicken - kind of a Mexican lasagna! I like to follow a recipe exactly - the first time at least - and this was no exception. I too found frying the strips tedious & would adapt Squeaky104's method next time. I would also top with a Cheddar/Monterey Jack combo. Thanx for another good one Mr. Miller!

My family enjoyed this meal. It was easy, I fried the tortilla strips in cooking spray...mkae it alittle better......I only used 3 tortilla 'cuz I had huge ones and that was plenty. I will make this again, but tweek-it to fit my family's taste more. Note: The tortilla strips on the bottom didnt stay crisp, some got soggy...do soemthing different to fix this??
