Mexican Taco Flavored Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

Tasty taco flavored stuffed chicken breasts using ingredients readily avaliable. I serve with Knorr Taco Flavored Rice but could easily be made using white rice and adding in some taco seasoning. Added 3/1/06(Note- You don't have to use all of the mayo mixture, just enough to lightly coat each breast so the Doritos stick.)

Categories     Main Dishes     Casserole Recipes     Chicken

Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
nonstick cooking spray
½ cup water
1 cube chicken bouillon
1 cup milk
1 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles (such as RO*TEL®), drained
1 ½ cups coarsely crumbled tortilla chips
1 cup finely chopped tomatoes, drained
3 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Combine chili powder, ground cumin, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and garlic in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and spray an 11x7-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place water and bouillon cube in a microwave-safe container and microwave on high for 2 minutes; stir until bouillon cube is dissolved. Cool slightly, add milk, and set aside.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbly, about 2 minutes. Stir in flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes.
