Recipe(tried): Tortilla Pie (using chicken)

Main Dishes - Chicken, Poultry
This recipe is different from the 1990's Great American Home baking, but it is close enough to use it.
I don't remember ingredient details (how much of the ingredients). I made it at least twice per week because my children loved it.

There was no taco sauce or chili powder. It called for sour cream, tomato sauce, a whole package of tortillas, vegetable oil instead of salad oil, and about two or three cans (8 oz each) of green chilis, drained.

I do know I had to cook the chicken first (I boiled it). Then shred the chicken to bite size pieces.

While cooking the chicken do the following steps:

In skillet saute onion and bell peppers and add salt and pepper. In blender add onion mixture and tomato sauce; puree.

In same skillet, pour in the tomato mixture and heat until it is a thicker consistency. Not a paste, but not completely runny. Remove from heat and put into a bowl; set aside. Wipe skillet.

Put in the cooking oil into wiped skillet about an inch or 2. Fry the tortillas. approximately 2 minutes per side.

Layering:
In a baking dish about 13 x 9-inch, line the bottom of the dish with tortillas - until covered. Spread sour cream, pour tomato mixture on top (not all of it, enough to get a decent covering). Add chicken, then the chilis, then the cheese. Repeat layers until the dish is topped off with cheese.

Cover dish with aluminum foil and bake. I don't remember for how long.

This was from memory sorry for not being more accurate.
