In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, diced green chilies, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Repeat this layering process two more times: tortillas, chicken, sour cream mixture, and cheese.

Step 9

Cover the casserole dish tightly with foil and bake for 20 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly.
