For a richer flavor, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and roast them yourself, then shred the meat. Reserve the pan drippings and add them to the soup mixture for extra depth. Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference. For a milder flavor, use only 1 teaspoon. For a spicier casserole, add a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you don't have corn tortillas, flour tortillas can be substituted. However, the texture will be slightly different.

Apr 13, 2022I've made this recipe several times, and it always turns out great. The only change I make is to add a can of black beans for extra protein and fiber.
