Chicken Enchilada Pie with Salsa Verde

There is no resisting this cheesy-pleasey gluten-free chicken enchilada pie recipe, which is simple to make and even easier to devour. This recipe calls for cooked chicken, preferably rotisserie, so plan accordingly.

Servings 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded jack cheese
  • 3 cups cooked shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 recipe Salsa Verde below, or 1 (15-ounce) can green enchilada sauce
  • 4 gluten-free corn tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon sliced black olives optional
  • 1 tomatillo thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Set aside ¼ cup each of the cheddar and jack cheeses. In a bowl, mix together the chicken, the remaining cheddar and jack cheeses, and sour cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

  2. Pour 1/3 cup of the salsa into the bottom of an 8-inch ovenproof skillet or baking dish. Cover with 1 tortilla, one-third of the chicken mixture, and 1/3 cup salsa. Repeat layers of tortilla, chicken mixture, and salsa until there are three layers. Top with the remaining tortilla, 1/3 cup salsa, the reserved cheeses, and the sliced olives and tomatillo. 

  3. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake 5 minutes longer. Serve with more salsa verde.
