Pam cooking spray
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of celery soup
1 (10 ounce) can Rotel tomatoes & chilies

3/4 cup sliced green onion
1 tablespoon sliced green onion
12 8-inch flour tortillas, cut into 6 triangular wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 F.
  • Spray a 2-1/2 quart or an 11X7X2 baking dish with Pam cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine chicken, 1 cup cheese, soups, rotel, green chilis and 3/4 cup green onions; blend well.
  • Set aside 12 tortilla wedges.
  • Mix remaining tortilla wedges into chicken mixture; spoon mixture into baking dish.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Pan: Use a large skillet or Dutch oven that is big enough to hold all of your ingredients comfortably. A cast iron skillet is a great option because it retains heat well.
  • Don't Crowd the Pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season your chicken liberally. Use a variety of herbs and spices to create a flavorful dish.
  • Cook the Chicken Over Medium Heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still juicy.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken and make it more tender.

Conclusion:

Dude Ranch Chicken is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With its crispy outer coating and tender, juicy interior, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
