Serves: 4

1 7oz can tomatillo sauce or 1 cup prepared salsa verde

(You can cut them to fit, if necessary) Spoon half the tomatillo mixture over the tortillas. Sprinkle the chicken evenly over the sauce; sprinkle ½ cup of the cheese over the chicken. Place the remaining 4 tortillas on top, then spoon on the remaining sauce, spreading it evenly to the sides. Top with the remaining ¼ cup of cheese.
