Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Create a base layer by evenly spreading the crushed tortilla chips across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. (2 minutes)

03

Step

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and diced green chilies until well blended. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Spoon the chicken mixture evenly over the bed of crushed tortilla chips, ensuring every chip gets a little love. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Generously sprinkle the shredded Colby-Jack cheese over the chicken layer, creating a blanket of cheesy goodness. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is heated through, bubbly, and the cheese is melted and lightly golden brown. (30 minutes)

07

Step

Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the casserole to set slightly.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a can of drained and rinsed black beans to the chicken mixture.
Spice it up by using pepper jack cheese instead of Colby-Jack.
Garnish with your favorite nacho toppings, such as chopped tomatoes, green onions, or a dollop of guacamole.
