Scale
- 4 cups (about 600 g) cooked, shredded chicken
- 1 oz (28 g) taco seasoning
- 540 g canned red enchilada sauce, divided
- 113 g canned diced green chilies
- 60 ml sour cream
- 230 g shredded sharp cheddar cheese

- 16 taco-sized flour tortillas

Instructions
- Combine shredded chicken with taco seasoning, 120 ml of the enchilada sauce, diced green chilies, sour cream, and 115 g of the mixed cheddar and pepper jack cheeses in a large bowl.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas in batches until crisp and golden on both sides, about 1–2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
- Spread a layer of refried beans onto one fried tortilla. Top with spoonfuls of the chicken mixture, a sprinkle of mixed cheese, and cover with a second tortilla.
- Spread approximately 45 ml enchilada sauce over the top tortilla and sprinkle generously with additional cheese. Repeat for remaining tortillas.
- Arrange assembled pizzas on a baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and garnish with diced tomatoes and sliced green onions. Serve hot.
Notes
- Customize toppings based on personal preferences.
- For extra heat, consider adding jalapeños or hot sauce.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
