Chef's Notes
Listen here, my aspiring culinary nobles! When constructing your layers, ensure your tortillas overlap slightly like the proud roof tiles of a grand castle. This structural integrity prevents your glorious creation from collapsing into a messy puddle when serving. Trust in the layers!
Pro Tip
Here is a secret whispered only in the highest palace kitchens: if your corn tortillas are feeling a bit stiff and rebellious, give them a ten-second whisper in the microwave beneath a damp paper towel. They will become as pliable as a trained acrobat, ready to serve your feast without a single crack!
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware of creating a soggy, structural disaster by drowning your corn tortillas in salsa roja before they have earned their layers, or you will serve a sad, mushy bowl of Mexican soup rather than a proud lasagna.

The Culinary Science
Marvel at the wonders of kitchen chemistry, my friends! As the lactose in your cheese and the proteins in your chicken thighs undergo the Maillard reaction inside the oven's warmth, they undergo a magnificent molecular dance that creates hundreds of new savory flavor compounds. That irresistible bubbling crust is pure science working magic for your palate!

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300ยฐF (150ยฐC) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
