Next, get a pan of some oil on the stove, turn it to medium and put one corn tortilla in at a time just to get the corn tortillas fried a little bit( it really just softens them, so don’t fry them till they are crispy).

Put foil on the 9x13 pan and then bake it on 375 for 30-45 minutes and then take out of the oven and add shredded cheese on top for it to melt.
