Ingredients

• 2 (10 ounce) cans whole green chilies
• 8 ounces monterey jack cheese, grated
• 8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
• 5 eggs
• 3/4 cup milk (I used 2% reduced fat)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 °.

2. Lightly grease a baking dish (I used my 10-inch cast iron skillet for this recipe) with a little butter, margarine or cooking spray. Set aside.

3. Remove chilies from the first can. Use a sharp knife to slice down one side to “butterfly” them. Arrange them evenly across bottom of the baking dish (or skillet).

4. Sprinkle 1/3 of cheese over the top.

5. Open the second can of chilies and do the same butterflying them and layering them over the cheese.

6. Sprinkle ½ of remaining cheese over top of chilies.

7. Meanwhile, crack eggs into medium bowl.

8. Add milk, flour, oregano, paprika, salt and pepper.

9. Use a hand mixer to mix ingredients until well combined.

10. Pour egg mixture over top of chilies and cheese. Top with remaining cheese and place in preheated oven. Bake 40-45 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
