- 2 Tbls. butter
- 3 cups cooked chicken, cubed
- 1 red onion
- 1 tsp. cumin
- Dash cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
- 6 eggs
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups cheese, shredded
- 3/4 cup green salsa verde
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 4 large burrito sized flour tortillas (or use regular size and just cut them to fit the bottom and top of the pie plates).
- Dice the chicken into bite sized pieces. Heat a saute pan to medium-high heat and add the butter to the pan. Saute together until the chicken is cooked through. Add the diced onions to the chicken and continue to cook until they are tender. If there is a lot of moisture, spoon most of it out so the pie won't be overly soggy. Season the mixture with the cumin, cayenne pepper, black pepper and salt. Season to your liking. Add the spinach leaves to the mixture and turn the heat off.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, flour, milk, shredded cheese, salsa and baking powder. Whisk together until smooth and then pour over the chicken mixture.
- Spray two pie plates on the bottom and sides. Place a tortilla on the bottom of the dish. Place half of the chicken mixture into the pie plates of both. Top with another large tortilla and sprinkle with cheese until the tortilla is covered. Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is firm.
Where is the spinach in the recipe?
I'm hoping someone will let us know how much spinach. This sounds great but the spinach isn't even listed in ingredients so we can just figure out when to add it….I really do want to try this.
Wow! How did I miss that. I am sorry 😉 Yes, it is 2 cups fresh spinach and you just add it in with the chicken mixture. Thanks for catching that. Hope you enjoy it!
wow, amazing food ideas you got there, Thanks a lot for sharing such wonderful recipe with us,
Thanks so much Shandra! Easy to make that oversite, you aren't the first and wont be the last. No bug deal really I just wasn't sure if you were using fresh or frozen, I probably should have asked that way, I will be trying this. So happy I found you!
