Chicken Fiesta Bake

I love the traditional Tortilla Bakes or Enchilada Casseroles, this is a mixture of a few recipes but is YUMMY!

3-4 chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)
1 onion
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 jar (16 oz.) Salsa
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can Fiesta Corn (black beans and corn)
12 corn tortillas (6 inch)
1 bag Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese,

So here's how I make it:

HEAT oven to 375°F.

Add chicken breasts to water in a pan or in Crock pot, with 1/2 onion, salt to taste and cook until done. Let cool and shred.In a skillet add oil and cook green and red pepper and remaining 1/2 of onion in oil. Add chicken to skillet and stir in salsa, tomatoes and corn.
SPREAD 1 cup meat mixture onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish; top with 6 tortillas, overlapping as necessary. Cover with layers of half each of the remaining meat mixture and cheese; top with remaining tortillas and meat mixture. Cover with foil.
BAKE 25 to 30 min. or until heated through. Top with more cheese; let stand 5 min. or until melted.


SERVE with sour cream!
