Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
- 2. In an 11 to 12-inch oven-safe skillet, melt the butter/oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers, season with salt and pepper. Cook until the onions are tender and softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- 3. In bowl, mix the cream cheese and yogurt. Add the onions/peppers, the chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine, then stir in 1 1/2 cups salsa and the chicken.
- 4. Working in the same skillet used to cook the onions, add a spoonful of the chicken mix, then layer with cheese and chips. Add another layer of chicken, then cheese and chips. Repeat to create 3 layers, ending with the chicken, and saving a handful of cheese for topping. Add the remaining salsa verde, then a final layer of cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
- 5. Serve immediately, topped as desired!
