Ingredients

 Olive oil2 Tablespoon
 Onion1 , finely chopped
 Chili powder1 Tablespoon
 Ground cumin1 Teaspoon
 Creamed corn1 Can (10oz)
 Pasta1 Can (10oz), stewed
 Green chiles1 Can (10oz), chopped
 3 cups skinless, boneless diced cooked chicken
 Corn tortillas package1
 Ground black pepper1 To taste
 Sour cream1 Cup (16 tbs)
 Monterey jack cheese4 Ounce
 Salt To Taste

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until somewhat translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder and cumin and saute for a few seconds just to release the aroma. Add the corn, tomatoes, chiles, and chicken and bring the mixture to a simmer.
3. While this is coming to a simmer, stack the tortillas and cut them into strips about 3/4 inch wide. When the chicken mixture is at a simmer, season to taste with salt and pepper. Layer one-third of the tortilla strips in a 9-inch square baking pan, and top with one third of the sour cream and one-third of the chicken mixture. Repeat with two more layers of tortilla strips, sour cream, and chicken. Cover and bake for 30 minutes. While it is baking, grate the Monterey Jack cheese.
4. When the chicken has finished baking, uncover the baking pan, sprinkle the cheese over the top, and bake, uncovered, until the cheese has melted, 5 minutes more.
