Chicken Enchilada Casserole - Gluten Free

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a large, deep skillet with little bit of oil; heat over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper; cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add one cup of tomatoes, tomato sauce, and cilantro (if used). Cook 5 minutes.
• Dump shredded chicken over tomato mixture in skillet. Spoon lime juice over chicken. Stir chicken and lime juice into tomato mixture. Heat a few minutes, if necessary. (If chicken is still warm from cooking, you will not need to heat more.)
• Spread one half of the jar of salsa in an ungreased 9″ x 13” baking dish; top with 5 tortillas (break into pieces as needed to mostly cover salsa).
• Top with chicken mixture; sprinkle with half of the cheese.
• Top with remaining tortillas. Spread with remaining salsa; sprinkle w/remaining cheese.
• Bake until cheese is melted and casserole is hot, about 15 to 20 minutes.
