WARM, GOOEY, YUMMY CHICKEN CASSEROLE!



Warm, Gooey, Yummy Chicken Casserole! image

People kept asking me for this recipe, and their friends kept asking them for the recipe after they made it for them, so I figured it was a good one to put on here! There are many, many different ways to make this more healthy, let me know how you do it! I usually get the low sodium soups, use smart balance mayo, 2% cheddar cheese, whole wheat bread on top, and smart balance butter. Every little bit helps! I haven't ever measured this, so don't be afraid to add more or less of anything at your discretion! Especially with the curry, some nights I get sassy and decide to put tons of curry in it. Oh! and one last thing- it tastes EXCELLENT the next day, and serving it over rice is tasty and makes it last longer!

TEX-MEX GOOEY CASSEROLE



Tex-Mex Gooey Casserole image

I got this recipe from Emeril Lagasse but have modified it some. We love this. The original recipe called for 1 pound of ground beef and one pound of stew meat and 4 cups of fresh tomatoes.

Provided by bmcnichol

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups chopped onions
2 lbs ground beef
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
salt and pepper
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
3 cups beef stock
10 flour tortillas
2 cups grated medium cheddar
2 cups grated monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F
  • Grease a 9 by 9 by 2-inch square baking dish.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the ground beef and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in the garlic, chili powder, and cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the tomato paste. Stir in the tomatoes and stock. Simmer the mixture for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove from the heat and cool.
  • Spoon a couple of tablespoons of the chili mixture on the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Lay two tortillas on top of the chili mixture. Sprinkle the top of the tortillas with the Cheddar and Jack cheese. Repeat the layering process until all of the chili, tortillas and cheese are used. (The final layer should be cheese)
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake until the cheese has melted, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool slightly before slicing.

Tips:

- For a richer, more flavorful casserole, use a combination of white and dark meat chicken. - To save time, use a rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken from another meal. - If you don't have cream of chicken soup, you can make your own by blending cooked chicken with a can of condensed cream of celery soup. - If you don't have sour cream, you can substitute plain yogurt or Greek yogurt. - To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and bake it for 30 minutes. Then cover it and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, bake it for an additional 30 minutes or until it's heated through. - Serve the casserole with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Conclusion:

This warm, gooey, and yummy chicken casserole is a comfort food classic that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. So next time you're in the mood for a hearty and satisfying casserole, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
