CHICKEN MEXICAN LASAGNA

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Before we get to the recipe, you can layer your ingredients in any order you like. You can change ingredients and add extra ingredients. Make it your own. Start by combining the chicken, cream cheese, and about 1.5-2 cups of poblano cream sauce. Stir until well mixed. You want the chicken to be well coated without it being too saucy. To start assembling the Mexican Lasagna, you want to place a single layer of tortillas in the bottom of a casserole dish. I used a ceramic dish and did not need to grease it. You want to create the best layer of tortillas that you can and you will likely need to slice tortillas in half or cut the edges off. Next, spread all of the refried beans on top of the tortillas in an even layer. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup cheese. Then add another layer of tortillas. Pour the salsa over the tortillas and sprinkle half of the raw corn over. Top with another layer of tortillas. Spread half of the chicken mixture over the tortillas to make the next layer. Drizzle some extra poblano cream sauce over the top. Add another layer of tortillas. Drain and rinse the black beans and spread half of them over the tortillas. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of cheese and drizzle about 1/2 cup of poblano cream sauce over the top. Add another layer of tortillas. Add the remaining chicken mixture and top with a last layer of tortillas. For the last layer, spread about 1/2 cup of the poblano cream sauce over the top of the tortillas, then sprinkle the remaining corn, black beans, and cheese over the top. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until hot and the cheese has browned. If you are assembling in advance and refrigerating you may need to increase the bake time. If you like, you can garnish with sliced grape tomatoes and green onion.
