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
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
- 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).
- Cool, shred, and set aside the chicken.
- Meanwhile, char each tortilla half over the open flame of a gas stove burner until lightly puffed, about 1 minute.
- Pour about 1/2 inch enchilada sauce into the bottom of a medium baking dish; arrange 6 tortillas in a single layer on top.
- 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.
- 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.
- Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
