It’s surprisingly simple to make and comes together quickly, making it a great addition to any meal. Serve it alongside chili, soup, or your favorite Tex-Mex dishes. It really goes well with this easy green chicken chili.

Helpful Tips

  • Use freshly shredded cheese: Pre-shredded cheese often has additives that prevent it from melting smoothly. Shred your own for the best texture and flavor.
  • Pick the right chilies: Canned diced green chilies work well for this recipe, but if you like more heat, roast and dice fresh green chilies for extra flavor.
  • Broil for texture and color: Use the broiler to get great color on the top of this bread. The direct heat gets the cheese all gooey and delicious. Just keep a close eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
