Wednesday Night Deliciousness!

This dinner was easy peasy and YUM YUM! I like Mexican food, so this was right up my alley. Too bad I didn't take any pics, so I stole this one from Dixie Caviar.

KING RANCH CASSEROLE

recipe from Southern Living

Ingredients:

1 large onion, chopped

1 large green bell pepper, chopped

3 cups chopped cooked chicken breasts*

1 (10 3/4 oz.) can cream of chicken soup

1 (10oz) can of diced tomato and green chiles**

1 1/2 cups sour cream

1 tsp. chili powder***

1/2 tsp. salt****

1/4 tsp. garlic powder****

12 (6 inch) fajita-size corn tortillas*****

1 (8oz.) block of cheddar cheese

Garnishes: chopped tomatoes, dollop of sour cream

Directions:

-saute onion and bell pepper in a lightly greased Dutch oven over medium-high heat 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in chicken and next 7 ingredients; remove from heat (I didn't use a Dutch oven. I sauteed them in a pan)

-Tear 6 tortillas. I layered 3 tortilla worth of pieces in a lightly greased 8-inch square baking dish. Top with with chicken mixture and 1/3 cup cheese. Repeat. Then, it should be full enough to where you just sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. 

-Bake at 350 for 50 minutes. 

-I garnished it with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkled a few diced tomatoes on top of that. 

*I used two cans of Kirkland's (Costco) chopped chicken

**this is a can of rotel

***didn't have chili powder, substituted paprika

****didn't have garlic powder, so used 1 tsp. of garlic salt and omitted salt. 

*****didn't need 12 fajita tortillas

And, I served it with one of my faves:

I hope you all are having a fabulous week! By the time you read this, I'll be down in Auburn, AL for the Auburn-Arkansas game. WAR EAGLE!!!!!!
