  3. In a medium bowl mix green chiles with beans and corn.
  4. Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce over the bottom of the baking dish. Layer 6 halves of tortillas over the sauce so that the bottom of the pan is covered.

  6. Place the second layer of tortillas on top and layer 1/3 of the chicken, 1/3 of the bean mix, 2/3 cup of the cheese and 1/2 cup enchilada sauce over the tortillas.
  7. Repeat this process one more time for the third layer.
  8. Place the remaining tortilla halves on top and spread the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the top.
  10. Cover with foil that's been sprayed with cooking spray and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and browned.
