Creamy Chicken Green Chile Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.

• In a medium heavy pot or saucepan, heat 2-3 tablespoons butter over medium heat; add in chopped onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper, saute for about 3-4 minutes.
• Add in the chicken broth, green chiles, cumin and chicken soup, season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil and simmer for about 3 minutes or until heated through and combined; remove from heat.
• Spread about 1 cup of the soup mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
• Arrange 5-6 tortillas over the soup mixture, then top with about 1 cup chicken, then about 1/2 cup shredded cheese (or to taste).
• Repeat the layers (ENDING with the cheese).
• Spread the remaining soup mixture over the cheese.
• Bake uncovered for about 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Cook chicken over medium-high heat until cooked through.
• Add seasonings to chicken while cooking.
• Add cream cheese and chilies.
• Cook and stir until blended.
• Arrange 2 tortillas on the bottom of a greased 8x8-inch pan (I cut the tortillas in half and put the straight edges along the edges of the pan, letting the tortillas over-lap).
• Sprinkle the tortillas with a small amount of the cheese.
• Pour the chicken mixture over the tortillas.
• Sprinkle small amount of cheese over chicken mixture.
• Arrange remaining tortillas on top.
• Pour enchilada sauce over top and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
• Bake for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spray bottom of large saucepan with cooking spray and saute garlic and onion until onions are soft.
• Add chicken broth, green chiles, sour cream, salt, cumin black pepper and soup stirring with a whisk.
• Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat.
• Spread 1 cup of soup mixture in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
• Arrange 4 tortillas over the top of soup mixture (it doesn't matter if there are some gaps--I end up tearing some in halves and fourths to spread them out with very little overlap or gaps--placing torn sides against flat sides of pan.).
• Repeat layers (3 tortilla layers topped with 1/4 of remaining soup mixure, 1 cup chicken and 1/2 cup cheese.
• Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until bubbly.

Steps:

• Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a large saucepan. Place the breasts in the stock, reduce the heat to moderate, cover and cook until the meat is tender, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool in the stock. When cool, remove the skin and bones and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Strain and reserve the stock for another use.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh tomatillo salsa, heavy cream, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the onion and shredded chicken pieces.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the tortillas just about 5 seconds per side to soften, and then transfer to a large colander to drain.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 4 quart casserole or 6 to 8 individual casseroles (at the restaurant, we use small soup bowls).
• Combine the cheeses in a mixing bowl.
• To assemble the chilaquiles, spread a thin layer of the cheese mixture over the bottom of the baking dish. Push the solids in the bowl of chicken and tomatillo sauce to the side so the liquids form a pool in the bottom. Dip all the softened tortillas in the pool to moisten. Layer one third of the moist tortillas over the cheese and top with half of the chicken mixture with its sauce. Sprinkle half of the remaining cheese over the chicken. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of tortillas on top. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake 30 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown. Let sit for 10 minutes before slicing and serving or unmolding.
• In blender place tomatillos, jalapenos and water. Puree until just chunky. Add remaining ingredients and puree about 2 minutes more, or until no large chunks remain. This salsa keeps in the refrigerator, in a covered container, about 3 days.
• In large bowl combine all ingredients and stir until smooth. The dough should be slightly sticky and form a ball when pressed together. To test, flatten a small piece of dough between your palms. If the edges crack, add water to the dough, a tablespoon at a time, until a test piece does not crack.
• Divide the dough into 24 golf ball size pieces for tacos and 12 large balls for quesadillas. Place on a platter and cover with a damp towel. Line a tortilla press with 2 sheets of plastic cut from a plastic freezer bag or other heavy duty plastic bag.
• Heat a dry cast iron skillet, or non-stick pan until moderately hot. Flatten each ball of dough in the tortilla press, then remove the plastic from the top and, holding the tortilla with your fingertips, peel off the bottom sheet. Lay the tortillas one by one on the skillet and cook about 30 to 45 seconds per side, pressing the top of each tortilla with your fingertips to make it puff. Place the hot tortillas on a towel.
• When they are still warm but not hot, stack and wrap in a towel. Serve immediately or let cool, wrap well in plastic or a plastic bag and store in the refrigerator up to a week.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

• Cut tortillas in half and place directly on the hot oven racks. Heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove tortillas and set aside.
• Place 1 cup of the green sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Layer 1/2 of the tortillas over the sauce. Add 1/2 of the chicken mixture. Spoon 1/2 of the remaining green sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle on 1/2 of the remaining cheese. Repeat the layers of tortillas, chicken mixture, green sauce, and cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
