Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chiles (such as RO*TEL® Original), drained
½ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons milk

This casserole was a disaster! The chicken was dry and the sauce was watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
