king ranch texas chicken

2 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
2 dozen corn tortillas, cut into fourths
2 c. cheddar cheese
1 c. chopped onions
1 can chopped green chilies
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of celery soup
1 can salsa (your heat preference)
1 c. sour cream

butter a 9x13 inch pan.  mix together soups, chili powder and sour cream.  saute onions in a small amount of butter.  add to soup mixture.  put 1/2 of chicken in the bottom of the pan.  add 1/2 of the tortillas, 1/2 of the cheese and 1/2 of the soup.  repeat layers, ending with cheese.  bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.  serves 6 to 8 city folks and 2 hungry cowboys.

*i found that letting the casserole sit for awhile after pulling it out of the oven does good things for the taste and texture.
