This bold flavored dish makes a great weeknight dinner that your family will love. With just 7 ingredients and one casserole dish, it's easy to make and customize to your own taste.

Ingredients

• 2 c. cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie works great)
• 3 c. shredded Monterey Jack cheese blend, Cheddar, or Mexican blend, shredded and divided
• 4.5 oz. can chopped green chilies, undrained
• 8-12 flour or corn tortillas, depending on size
• 16 oz. can refried beans, divided
• 19 oz. enchilada sauce
• 1/4 c. medium sliced green onions, optional, for garnish
• fresh cilantro, if desired

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix together chicken, 1 1/2 c. cheese, and chiles in a bowl. Evenly spread a few spoonfuls enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish; layer 2 tortillas on top of the sauce, making sure that the entire bottom of the dish and part of the sides are completely covered by the tortillas.
3. Spread half of the refried beans on top of the tortillas, followed by half of the chicken mixture, and then half of the enchilada sauce. Place 2 tortillas on top of this layer, followed by the remaining refried beans and chicken mixture. Add the rest of the enchilada sauce on top of these tortillas; sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
