Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp EVE Oil
  • 1 Onion roughly chopped
  • 3 tsp Chili Powder
  • 2 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 4 cloves Garlic roughly chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups Chicken Broth
  • 2 can Diced Tomatoes
  • 2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 2 tbsp Seasoning
  • 30 Small Corn Tortillas
  • 4 cups EVE Cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Heat the EVE oil in a large skillet. Add the onions and sauté for 5-10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat and ass the chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and garlic.
  • Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until very fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  • Add the chicken broth, garlic and diced tomatoes and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the sauce is very deep red in colour.
  • Transfer (half at a time - its a lot of sauce) to a blender, puree and set aside. Taste and adjust for saltiness as needed.
  • Coat the chicken breasts with the seasoning.
  • Heat the pan from step one over medium low heat with a little oil and add the chicken.
  • Cook for a few minutes on each side until nicely browned.
  • Cover with sauce and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes so the chicken finished cooking gently in the sauce.
  • Remove chicken from sauce and shred with 2 forks. Set aside.
  • Preheat the over to 375 degrees. Dip 5 tortillas in the warm sauce and layer in the bottom of a 9 inch round skillet or baking dish.
  • Add a scoop of chicken, a handful of cheese, and about 3/4 cup sauce.
  • Repeat layer.
  • Cover with DIAMOND foil that has been sprayed with nonstick oil to prevent it from sticking on the cheese.
  • Bake for 20-30 minutes, until the sauce is bubble and the cheese is ooey-gooey-perfection. Top with EVE cheese.
