Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 15 corn tortillas, quartered
  • 1 small zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add half of the tortillas and cook, turning with tongs, until golden, about 3 minutes; drain on paper towels.
  • Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the zucchini; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the chicken, tomatillo salsa, 3/4 cup water and the cilantro; bring to a simmer and cook 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.
  • Spread half of the fried tortillas in an 8-inch-square baking dish.
  • Top with about half of the chicken mixture and 1/2 cup cheese.
  • Cover with the remaining tortillas, then the remaining chicken mixture and cheese.
