Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 lb fresh tomatillos-husked, rinsed and halved
2 large garlic cloves
1 large jalapeno-halved lengthwise, stemmed and seeded
1/4 cup packed cilantro
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
salt and freshly ground pepper
1 lb shredded cooked chicken (3 cups), at room temperature
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese (6 oz)
1/2 cup farmer cheese (4 oz)
1 scallion, sliced
1 6- oz bag tortilla chips (8 cups)
1/4 cup sour cream

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 450°. In a blender or food processor, puree the tomatillos, garlic, jalapeño and cilantro until smooth. In a large saucepan, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the cumin and coriander and cook over high heat until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add the tomatillo puree, bring to a boil and cook until the sauce loses its bright green color, 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with 3/4 cup of the pepper Jack, the farmer cheese, scallion and half of the tomatillo sauce; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss the tortilla chips with the remaining sauce.
Spread half of the chips in an 8-by-11-inch baking dish; top with the chicken and cover with the remaining tortilla chips. Don't pack the chips down. Dollop the sour cream over the chips and sprinkle with the remaining 3/4 cup of pepper Jack. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is browned. Serve at once.
