Green Chile-Chicken Casserole


This recipe is very similar to my White Chicken Enchilada recipe but is even better because 1. it is faster and 2. it is lower in calories and fat but doesn't lose any of the taste. YUMTOWN!


Side note: As previously discussed, I'm lazy. But then I read that my hero, Ellie Krieger, also uses Rotisserie chickens so I don't feel so bad suggesting that here. Just take off the skin if you are watching calories and fat.


Green Chile-Chicken Casserole

Serves 6, but can be easily doubled


Ingredients:

2/3 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup canned chopped green chiles, drained
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup low fat sour cream
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 (10 1/2-oz) cans condensed 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup, undiluted

1 garlic clove, minced
Cooking spray
12 (6-inch) corn tortillas
1 Rotisserie Chicken, skin removed and shredded

1 cup finely shredded 2% fat sharp cheddar cheese


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.


Combine the first 9 ingredients in a large saucepan, stirring with a whisk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.


Spread 1 cup soup mixture in a small-ish baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange 6tortillas over the soup mixture, and top with 1 cup chicken and 1/2 cup cheese. Repeat layers, ending with the cheese. Spread remaining soup mixture over cheese. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until bubbly.
