1 cup chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup shredded cooked chicken breast (about 6 ounces)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups green chile sauce
cooking spray
6 (6-inch) corn tortillas
1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled feta cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté 4 minutes or until tender. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Combine onion mixture, chicken, salt, and pepper.
3. Spread 1/4 cup Green Chile Sauce over bottom of an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange 2 tortillas over sauce; top evenly with half of chicken mixture and 1/2 cup Green Chile Sauce. Repeat procedure, ending with tortillas. Spread remaining sauce over tortillas. Sprinkle with cheese.
4. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Cut each tortilla stack in half.
