Ultimate King Ranch Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Saute onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper in hot oil until warmed through, about 2 minutes.
• Combine onion-pepper mixture, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, sour cream, cumin, ancho chile powder, oregano, and chipotle chile powder together in a large bowl and stir until sauce is well-combined.
• Spread a few tablespoons of the sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread 1/2 the chicken over the sauce. Spread about half the sauce over the chicken and top with 1/3 the cheese. Spread a layer of tortillas over the cheese. Spread remaining 1/2 the chicken over the tortillas, and top with almost all of the remaining sauce, reserving 1/2 cup sauce. Top with 1/3 the cheese, remaining tortillas, the reserved 1/2 cup sauce, and remaining 1/3 cheese.
• Bake casserole in the preheated oven until bubbling, about 40 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to broil. Broil the casserole until top is golden, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, diced tomatoes with green chiles and juice, chicken broth, onion, and canned green chiles together in a bowl, stirring until thoroughly combined.
• Place 1/3 of the tortilla strips in a layer into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish; top with 1/3 of the chicken mixture. Repeat layers twice more; sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese on top of the casserole.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden brown and casserole is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. If casserole is still slightly runny, let stand 5 to 10 minutes until firm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a large saucepan set over medium-high heat, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, tomatoes, and garlic salt. Stir until warm, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Put half of the tortillas in the bottom of the pan. Layer in half each of the chicken meat and onion, then sprinkle with one-third of the cheese mix. Pour half of the soup mixture over the top, then repeat the layers. Top the casserole with the remaining third of the cheese.
• Bake for 45 minutes or until the cheese has melted and browned slightly.
• Great for freezing! See our Freezer Tips on pages 23-27.
