Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine chipotle chili, garlic, chili powder, cumin, chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, or until chili is tender. Set aside; you'll need the sauce later.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken until tender, about 7-9 minutes. Remove the meat from the skillet and place it in a medium bowl. Put the onion with a large pinch of salt in the same pan, reduce the heat to medium-low and fry the onion for 4-6 minutes. Add the garlic and oregano and cook until the onions are soft, another 2-3 minutes. Place the chicken back in the skillet and remove it from heat.
  3. heat the oven to 180 ° C. Spray a 33x23cm glass baking dish with cooking spray. Put 1/2 tablespoon. sauce on the bottom of the mold. Dip 4 tortilla cakes in the remaining sauce and place them on the bottom of the tin. Cut one cake in half so that the bottom is completely covered. Top with half the chicken mixture and 1 tablespoon. cheese. Take 4 more tortillas and repeat layers. The last layer is the remaining 4 cakes. Pour the remaining sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon. cheese.
  4. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the oven for 30 minutes with the wire rack in the center. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese bubbles on the surface.
