Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 white onion, coarsely chopped
1 poblano pepper, peeled and seeded
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded
¾ cup chopped cilantro
4 cloves garlic
2 leaves fresh mint
salt to taste
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
¼ cup vegetable oil
12 (6 inch) white corn tortillas, cut into 3 strips
¾ cup shredded pepperjack cheese
¾ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Blend tomatillos, onion, poblano pepper, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, garlic, mint, and salt in a blender until smooth. Transfer mixture to a saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add chicken to tomatillo sauce and continue to simmer until chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes more.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry tortilla strips in batches until crisp and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Layer about half the fried tortillas in a 2-quart baking dish; spread half the tomatillo sauce over tortillas. Mix pepperjack cheese and Monterey Jack cheese in a bowl; sprinkle half over tomatillo sauce. Repeat layers.
  • Bake in preheated oven until cheese is golden and bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving.
