Chicken Enchilada Casserole

A delicious enchilada casserole straight from your kitchen!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Step One: Gather Ingredients

    You will need:

    3 cups cut chicken (or more - whatever you like)
    3 cups sour cream
    Salsa
    green Chile peppers (the small cans will be fine)
    Canned sweet corn
    Sliced onion
    minced garlic
    chile powder
    salt & pepper
    olive oil
    Pkg of 12 corn tortillas
    CHEESE! - a mexican blend or monterey jack, cheddar

  2. Step 2

    Step Two: Making Your Casserole

    Pre-heat oven at 450 degrees

    In a saucepan, combine chicken, 1 cup sour cream, corn, green chile, onion, chili powder, garlic, salt & pepper. Stir & cook over low heat until thoroughly heated. Set aside.

    In a baking pan, spread salsa on bottom of pan until covered.

    In a skillet, heat olive oil & fry corn tortillas just a few seconds. (you don't want to over cook - you still want the tortillas soft) After you have cooked your tortillas, fill tortillas with your chicken mixture and roll and place in baking pan.

    Once all of the enchiladas are in the baking pan, spread the remaining sour cream on top, some salsa, and top it off with your cheese. Bake for about 10-15 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Step Three:

    Let the casserole cool for about 10 minutes before serving. You can garnish with tortilla chips, guacamole, salsa, or cilantro.
    I love having a nice cool margarita with this meal. Depending on how spicy you like your food, I also add some hot sauce to the top of the casserole. You can serve with refried beans. YUMMY!

Tips & Warnings
  • This meal can last a couple of days or can be frozen for up to two weeks.
  • In the margaritas, I have started using limeaid drink. It's delicious!

on 5/15/2009 This sounds great. My family loves enchiladas but I've never tried it as a casserole. The corn is a nice addition.
