1. Preheat the oven to 450ºF. For the filling, set out a large nonstick
skillet. For the pie, choose a large deep ovenproof skillet (a cast iron
one is perfect) or a deep sauté pan. Spray both skillets with nonstick
cooking spray.
2. To make the Chili-Beef Filling: In the large nonstick skillet, sauté
the
beef, onions, corn, bell pepper and garlic over medium-high heat until the
beef is no longer pink.
3. Stir in the tomatoes and their purée, the tomato paste, kidney beans,
chili powder and hot pepper sauce; bring to a full boil. Lower the heat,
cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
4. To assemble the pie: In the deep ovenproof skillet, spread one-third of
the beef mixture. Layer: 8 tortilla semicircles and one-third of the beef
mixture; repeat. Bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
5. For the Cheese Topping: Sprinkle the cheese over the pie, covering the
top completely. Bake 5 minutes more or until the cheese melts. Sprinkle
with the minced parsley. Garnish the pie with a cluster of tiny peppers
and
leaves of parsley, if you wish.
