CHEESY CHICKEN TOMATILLO CASSEROLE



Cheesy Chicken Tomatillo Casserole image

CHEESY Chicken Tomatillo Casserole recipe! This easy Mexican dinner casserole uses 1 pound of tomatillos to make a creamy sauce that is layered with tortilla chips, chicken, black beans and cheddar cheese! I love to make this simple dish when my garden tomatillo plants give me too much and I'm left asking asking "What to do!".

Provided by Pamela

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound tomatillos, husks removed ((approximately 10 tomatillos))
1 small onion
1 small green pepper
1 jalapeno pepper (seeds removed)
1/2 cup cilantro
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound cooked, shredded chicken breast
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
1 15 oz can black beans
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Add tomatillos, onion, green pepper, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, garlic, lime juice and salt to a food process or blender. Blend until smooth and no chunks from the vegetables are left. Pour mixture into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook on medium heat for 10 minutes.
  • Add chicken to tomatillo sauce mixture and continue cooking for 10 more minutes. If sauce is very liquidy turn up the heat. Important: you want to try to reduce all the extra liquid or it will make your casserole soggy.
  • Spread 1/2 of the tortilla chips in a 8x8 baking dish. Add 1/2 of your chicken tomatillo mixture on top. Add 1/2 of black beans on top. Add 1/2 of cheese on top. Repeat one more time.
  • Bake for 35 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken ((cut into bite size pieces))
salt ((to taste))
pepper ((to taste))

  • Serve topped with fresh cilantro, sour cream, jalapeño pepper slices, and/or avocado, if desired.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH TOMATILLO SALSA



Chicken Breasts with Tomatillo Salsa image

I had a jar of tomatillo salsa in the pantry and decided to create an easy week night dish full of flavor. This sure fit the bill. DH asked me to write it down before I forgot what I did so I could duplicate it again. I'm watching fat, so I didn't add cheese or sour cream to my portion, but it was still delicious. Cleanup is a breeze -just throw the foil away!

  • SAUCE: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the tomatillos and jalapeño peppers on a baking sheet. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil. Wrap the garlic cloves up in a small piece of foil, drizzling the with a bit of oil as well before you wrap it up. Place the foil garlic packet on the baking sheet with the tomatillos. Roast for 15 minutes – stir once to prevent burning, and roast for another 15 minutes. Unwrap the foil and transfer the roasted garlic, tomatillos, and jalapeños to a food processor. Add the cilantro and green onions. Pulse until mostly smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the broth, sour cream, and oil.
  • CHICKEN: While the sauce is roasting, bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the chicken, turn heat off, and cover tightly. Let rest for 30 minutes. This will poach the chicken – it should be cooked by the time the sauce is done. When it’s done, shred the chicken and reserve the water.
  • ASSEMBLE: Dip a tortilla in the hot water from step two until it’s very soft. Lay it on the bottom of a greased 9-inch square baking dish. Cut the next tortilla in half, dip the halves in the water, and place them in the corners of the pan. Layer with half of the chicken, one third of the sauce, and one third of the cheese. Repeat layers. End with a final layer of tortillas, sauce, and cheese.
  • BAKE: Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes until hot and bubbly – I’d put a pan underneath to catch sauce drips. Sprinkle with extra cilantro before serving.
