How to make Chicken Filled Casserole ?

By


Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Total time: 45 mins
Serves: 10-12

Ingredients : 

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 19 ounces (about 2 ½ cups) enchilada sauce
  • 2 cups shredded cheese
  • 6-8 small flour tortillas
  • 1 can refried beans

Method :

  1. Cook and shred the chicken. Boil a large pot of water and cook the chicken breasts in the water for about 30 minutes until cooked through. Then I shred the chicken with 2 forks. You can do this ahead of time.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a few spoonfuls of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a glass square baking dish to prevent sticking. Place 2 tortillas in the bottom of the dish, overlapping to cover the entire surface. Layer the beans, chicken, cheese, sauce, and tortillas; repeat once to make a total of 2 layers. For me this was about ⅓ cup refried beans, 1 cup of the chicken, ½ cup cheese, and about ¾ cup enchilada sauce in each layer.
  3. Cover the top with the remaining enchilada sauce and 1 cup cheese. Cover the baking dish with well-oiled aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes or until cheese is starting to brown and sauce is bubbling.
  4. Allow to rest for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving. Top with sliced green onions or cilantro.
