I have made this several times. I've been working it to get it similar to what I always order from my favorite family owned mexican restaurant, while limiting fat and calories. I've used fresh peppers and canned. Best with Hatch fresh roasted peppers, in season. Fire roasted canned are not bad either. Most recently I used a 1 lb.10oz can of chiles and added 2 stewed chicken breasts and used only 8 oz. of pepper jack, layered chiles, chicken, cheese, chiles, chicken, cheese. I always put a 10 inch flour tortilla in the bottom of my round casserole so I don't have to scrape against foil to serve, no one wants to bite into foil bits. Use Reynolds release or spray the foil so you can lift the whole lot out of the casserole once cooled and set, serve pie wedge style. For this larger amt of chile peppers I used 5 sm eggs, 5 T flour, 4 T 2%, 1t garlic powder, 1/2 t cumin. The sauce is appx. 1 cup "Enchilada Sauce" by Anna Marie, sans cinnamon and chocolate, and a can of regular Rotel. Next approximation I will mix drained regular rotel with the chiles and use hot Rotel in the Enchilada Sauce.
