Creamy Chicken Tortilla Bake Recipe
Directions
  • Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 baking dish.

  • Cook the peppers and onions for about 5 minutes or until tender; stir occasionally while cooking.
  • Stir in broth, cream of mushroom soup, tomatoes and green chilies, and the shredded chicken. Stir together until evenly mixed.
