Recipe: Chicken Enchilada Casserole

[syrenslure]

I've talked about my Chicken Enchilada Casserole a few times, and I made it last night, so I am in the mood to share. I don't really have a recipe for this, as I have said, I don't think I have made this the same way twice in the last 8 years. Also, it resembles Chicken Enchiladas only vaguely, in that it was inspired by them. It's my husband's

We love mexiacan and I'm all for casseroles so I'm on this. I have one too, if you are interested. :)

Sure, I love to see other people's recipes and get inspired. My husband is a HUGE fan of Mexican food.

Okay, here it is:

4 cut-up boneless, skinless chicken breasts
10-12 cut up corn tortillas (white or yellow)
1 can Hormel chili with beans
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1 diced medium to small onion (yellow or purple)
1/3 can of green chili salsa verde (small can)
1 cup grated cheddar
1 cup grated jack (I use the mexican blend from Costco)

Preheat oven to 350, mix up all ingredients except the cheese, spread in a greased (pam spray) pyrex 9x13 or 10x14 cover with the cheese and bake for 1 hour.

It's fast, it's easy, it's g-o-o-d.

note: You can use less or more cheese depending how you feel about it.

I think he'll like this. I'll have to try it next time I have some money to go grocery shopping.

I'm not sure what salsa verde is (other than it is obviously made with green chilis of some sort) so I will have to try that and possibly experiment with it.

Thx.

It's just a small can of green chili salsa (not hot) and it gives a small kick, very tolerable and not hot or spicy. I'm not the worlds best cook, so this is really easy, really quick and everyone loves it and it makes the house smell heavenly when it cooks.
