Directions:
Roast chili peppers under broiler or above gas flame until slightly charred on all sides. Put in a plastic or paper bag to "sweat" 15 minutes. Remove skins peeling back all charred areas and cut into strips, removing and discarding seeds. (Do not rinse under water, as peppers will lose their flavor.)

Saute onion in 2 tablespoons of oil until soft. Add sliced peppers and 1/4 tsp salt and cook a few minutes to blend flavors. Let cool.

Spread 1/3 tortillas in bottom of 13x9x2 casserole dish. Layer with half of chicken and pepper and 1/3 of the sauce, sour cream, and shredded cheese. Repeat layers and finish with remaining sauce, sour cream, and cheese.

Bake at 350º for 30 minutes and serve.
