Whereas the flavors are paying homage to enchilada casserole, the meeting course of is even simpler — fairly than filling and rolling tortillas, shredded rotisserie hen, corn tortillas, and melty cheese are layered like a lasagna. Don’t skip the salsa macha verde; this crunchy chile condiment provides a punch of spicy umami.
Notes from the Meals & Wine Check Kitchen
Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and pop them within the oven for about 10 minutes to melt them and produce out their flavors. It’s also possible to char them in a pan on the range.

Strive pairing a strawberry-raspberry rosé, like Stolpman Vineyards Love You Bunches, with this weeknight mainstay.
