2 c shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1-1/2 c salsa Verde, divided

Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
Add 3/4 cup salsa, sour cream, and chicken into a mixing bowl. Stir until well blended.
Apply cooking spray to an 8-inch square baking dish.
Add about 1/4 cup of salsa to the bottom of the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Lay 1/2 of the tortillas and chicken mixture into the prepared baking and arrange them in a single layer.
Top the chicken mixture with minced cilantro, 1/2 of the cheese, and 1/2 of the tomatoes. Repeat the process with the rest of the ingredients until everything is arranged in layers.
