Yield: 6 to 8 servings

12 tortillas, quartered
1 quart vegetable oil, for frying tortillas, optional
½ cup Monterey Jack cheese, grated
1 cup sour cream
1 quart Salsa Ranchero, recipe follows
¾ cup chicken stock, if needed
1. Prepare the Salsa Ranchero and heat the oil for frying if frying the tortillas.
2. Fry the tortillas, in hot (375 F) oil until crisp, if frying. This dish can be made with baked tortillas. If baking, preheat oven to 425F and bake until dry and crisp, about 12 to 15 minutes.
3. Oil the baking dish, then place the tortilla pieces in a three quart oblong casserole and spread the shredded chicken evenly over them. If the chicken is dry, add ¾ cup chicken stock. Cover with the Salsa Ranchero. Top with dollops of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheese. Cover pan with foil and bake in a 350 F oven for about 15 minutes, until tortillas are softened and to evenly blend flavors.
