• Mix 1/2 cup of the chicken stock with all the other remaining ingredients except the cheese and tortillas.
• Mix the three cheeses together.
• Dip tortillas into remaining reserved chicken stock and put a double layer of tortillas in two 8 inch x 8 inch pans (I use two 2 quart Pyrex glass ones), a layer of the soup, vegetables and chicken mixture, a layer of 1/3 of the cheese, then repeat these layers two more times.
• Cover with tinfoil and bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour.
• Let the dish set for 10 minutes before serving. This recipe results in a mildly hot dish. If you would like it hotter, increase the three peppers, or just serve with a jar of ground cayenne pepper, so each person can adjust the heat as they like.
