I got my picture in the paper for this one! My friends' husbands always fall in love with this when I bring it to parties! My 4 picky kids eat it! If you want to skip the charring step, simply tear the tortillas into fourths so they absorb the sauce better.

CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE IN GREEN CHILE AND SOUR CREAM SAUCE



Chicken Enchilada Casserole in Green Chile and Sour Cream Sauce image

Not the most "healthy" recipe, but it's very tasty! Very creamy and rich enchilada chicken casserole. If you prefer the more traditional rolled enchiladas, all you have to do is place the chicken and sauce mix (approx 3 Tbsp) in the center of each corn tortilla, roll, and place in casserole dish with the seam side down...then cover the rolls with remaining sauce and cheese. I was feeling lazy, so I did it casserole style.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 corn tortillas
2 cups corn oil
2 (16 ounce) bags Mexican blend cheese
1 whole chicken, cooked
1 tablespoon coarse black pepper
0.5 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix (Hidden Valley)
1 (8 ounce) can tomatoes and green chilies
1 (8 ounce) can green enchilada sauce
1 (6 ounce) can green chilies, diced
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

  • Heat oil in medium skillet -(ready when a drop of water in oil "pops" at you).
  • Quickly dip each tortilla in oil. Long enough to coat the tortilla. You only want to soften them, too long in the oil and they will turn crunchy.
  • "Drain" tortillas on paper towels.
  • Line 9x12 glass cooking dishing with six of the tortillas and set aside.
  • In medium sauce pan combine diced green chiles, green chile sauce, soup and sour cream. Stir over medium heat until all the ingredients blend into a smooth, creamy mix.
  • Tun off heat and set aside.
  • Seperate meat from chicken, be careful of bones. NOTE: I usually buy a pre-cooked one from Albertson's.
  • In a large bowl mix tomatoes, chicken, and one bag of chesse.
  • Spread chicken mixture over tortillas in cooking dish.
  • Douse chicken with half of the cream sauce.
  • Cover with remaining six tortillas.
  • cover entire casserole with second bag of cheese.
  • Cook for 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted, at 375.
  • Serve with remaining sauce as a condiment.
