  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, toss the shredded chicken with the garlic salt, chili powder, cumin, and dried minced onion. Set aside.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, add the garlic, green chiles, and chicken broth. Bring just to a gentle bubble.

  • Layer 4 corn tortillas over the sauce, followed by one-third of the chicken, one-third of the cheese, and one-third of the sauce.
  • Repeat the layers until everything has been used, finishing with the remaining cheese on top.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours.
  • Garnish with cilantro, jalapeños, scallions, or your favorite toppings before serving.
