Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Cook the Ground Beef:

Add Seasoning and Cream Cheese:
Stir in the taco seasoning, green chilis, and cream cheese until the cream cheese is completely melted and well combined with the meat mixture.
Layer with Chips and Cheese:
Spread the Doritos, Fritos, or tortilla chips evenly over the meat mixture in the skillet. Then, sprinkle the shredded taco blend cheese on top.
Bake:
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
