Tex-Mex Tortilla Cake

Instructions

1. 1

   With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 350°F (180 °C).

2. 2

   In a saucepan over medium-high heat, sauté the green onions and garlic in the oil. Add the beef and cook over high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Add the oregano, chili powder, cream cheese, chicken broth and chives. Cook, stirring, until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

3. 3

   Place a tortilla in a large pie plate. Cover with about one-fifth of the meat mixture. Sprinkle with one-fifth of the cheese. Repeat, alternating tortilla, meat, and cheese until all the ingredients have been used. Top with cheese. Cover the tortilla cake with a sheet of foil.

4. 4

   Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue cooking for another 20 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges. Serve with salsa and sour cream, to taste.
