In a large Dutch oven or a large deep non-stick skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat, heat the oil.

Step 6

Bring the chicken mixture to a boil and let it boil for 1 minute.

Step 7

Adjust the heat to low and cover the Dutch oven.

Step 9

Add the queso and the milk to the chicken mixture.
