Quick and Easy Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Casserole

A flavorful casserole made with chicken, green chile enchilada sauce, tortillas, and cheese.

Ingredients

  • chicken breast halves (4 none)
  • garlic salt (0 none)
  • corn tortillas (18 none)
  • green chile enchilada sauce (1 can)
  • Monterey Jack cheese (1 package)
  • sour cream (1 container)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
  2. Season chicken with garlic salt; arrange in the prepared baking dish. Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink and juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  3. Cool, shred, and set aside the chicken.
  4. Meanwhile, char each tortilla half over the open flame of a gas stove burner until lightly puffed, about 1 minute.
  5. Pour about 1/2 inch enchilada sauce into the bottom of a medium baking dish; arrange 6 tortillas in a single layer on top.
  6. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the chicken, 1/3 of the cheese, 1/2 of the sour cream, and 1/3 of the remaining enchilada sauce.
  7. Repeat layers. Coat remaining tortillas thoroughly with some of the remaining enchilada sauce and arrange on top. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and top with any remaining enchilada sauce.
  8. Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
