Grease a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish.
In a very large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat.
Add in onion, bell pepper and dryed chili flakes; saute for about 6-7 minutes or until tender, adding in the garlic the last 2 minutes.
Add in all ingredients up to the tortillas; mix well to combine and simmer for about 10 minutes.
Layer 1/3 of the broken tortillas in the bottom of the dish, top with 1/3 of the chicken mixture, then 1 cup grated cheese (or to taste).
Repeat the layers twice making certain to end up with the cheese on top.
Bake uncovered for about 25-30 minutes.
If desired you can omit the cheese on top, bake for 30 minutes, remove from oven sprinkle with cheese and return to oven for about 7-8 minutes or until the cheese has melted, this will avoid the cheese from becoming hard.
