Chicken Aztec Cake

Chicken Aztec Cake.

l like this recipe, its perfect to enjoy with familly or friends. Its simple and easy to do, like a lasanga because we put layers. A great side dish would be a salad.I think could work well as a brunch...

Ingredients.

Sauce:

1 cream cheese ( could be light)

1 kilo ( around 2 pounds) green tomato( tomatillos)

1/3 cup chopped onion

1 clove garlic

2 to 4 chiles, if you like hot use serrano ( I open and sedded, in that way we have the chile flavor but not the hot , I like to use poblano ( first grilled and peeled sedded) or could be fine a mix of both.
