Turkey Chilaquiles

Makes: 6 servings

Prep: 10 minutes

Cook: 9 minutes

Bake: at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes

Ingredients

2 Tbs. vegetable oil

1 medium-size red onion, chopped (about 1-1/2 cups)

3 cups shredded leftover turkey

1 can (4 ounces) diced green chilies

1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chilies

1 jar (16 ounces) chunky salsa

5 cups tortilla chips

1-1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

1 Tbs. lime juice

Directions

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.

2. Heat vegetable oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add 11/4 cups onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add turkey, green chiles and diced tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, or until heated through. Add salsa and cook another 2 minutes

3. Break up 4 cups of the tortilla chips and stir into mixture; top with cheese. Place skillet in oven and bake at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes or until cheese melts.

4. Remove skillet from oven and stir in remaining 1/4 cup onions, 1 cup tortilla chips, cilantro and lime juice.

I used chicken not turkey. I added 1 c mushrooms. I used ½ jar HOT salsa, but wouldn’t another time. I sautéed ALL of the onions. I’d probably add more cilantro and lime juice another time.
