but it will have to do for now!)
If you are from Texas you have had
this dish for sure!
It is so warm and filling!
Great for a cold winter day
like it is here today in Colorado!
There are many variations to this
dish but all involve chicken,
cheese and tortillas!
cheese and tortillas!
How can you go wrong with that combo!
So Mamas just go to the kitchen and
whip this puppy up for supper!
The kids won't fight all evening cuz their
bellies will be so full they will
pass out on the couch!
Ingredients
1 whole chicken cooked, deboned and cut into medium pieces
12 corn tortillas (cut into quarters)
1 can of Rotel Tomatoes
2 cans of cream of chicken soup
1 cup of sour cream
1 can of chicken broth
1/2 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
2 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
In a bowl add Rotel, soups, sour cream, cilantro, and 1 cup of cheese. Mix well. Slowly add in 1/2 can of the broth. Check consistency. It needs to be a thicker than a pancake batter but not too thick. Add more broth if it seems to thick. I usually end up using the majority of the can. I can always add more cheese if I get it to thin. In a 12 x 10 or so casserole dish ladle about 1/2 cup of the sauce into the dish and spread it around. Put one layer of tortillas on top of the sauce. Next place cut up chicken on top of the tortillas. Don't use all of the chicken as we will repeat this layer again. Ladle some of the sauce on top of the chicken. Continue with this layering; tortillas, chicken, and sauce until all ingredients are used up. So you have ended with sauce on top. Take the remainder of the cheese and dump on top of the casserole!
Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until it browns and bubbles. Make sure the middle is hot too! I serve this with a green salad, chips and salsa! Guacamole and pico are excellent with this as well! This serves 6-10 depending on the serving size. We are a family of 5 and we always have plenty left for breakfast! Yes I said breakfast! YUM! If you would prefer turkey instead of chicken that can be easily substituted with the same great taste. And for a speedy version you can pick up a rotisserie chicken and go to town or just throw about 4 medium chicken breasts on the grill instead of boiling a whole chicken. Any of these versions will be delicious!
So get to the kitchens Mamas! A Hot Meal Is Calling Your Name!

My momma used to make this exact recipe only she substituted the corn tortillas for Doritos and called it Doritos casserole. Very good both ways.
What can you use instead of the can of chx soup? Anything I can substitute?

This recipe was delicious and easy to fix. We loved it
Made this and it was really, sent husband to store and he brought home flour tortillas instead of corn, but it was still delicious my husband loved it and so did I.
YUM! I’ve made King Ranch Chicken many times, but this one, with sour cream, is a KEEPER! This Texas girl and her husband LOVE this recipe! Thank you!
You could use chicken broth with a can of green chilies heat add your choice of cheese I prefer Monterey jack then thicken up w a little cornstarch
