    Step by stepInstructions

    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 9x13 dish.
    2. Whisk the soup, sour cream, broth, cumin, garlic powder, and salt; stir in the green chiles.
    3. Layer in the dish: a third of the tortilla strips, half the chicken, a third of the sauce, and a third of the cheese; repeat, then top with the remaining tortillas, sauce, and cheeses.
    4. Bake 30 minutes until bubbling and golden. Rest 10 minutes, top with cilantro, and serve with salsa and sour cream.

    💡 Chef tips & storage

    Let it rest before serving so the layers set. This casserole freezes beautifully — assemble and freeze unbaked.
