CHICKEN TORTILLA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Add the chicken to a large stockpot, cover with water and add a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside to cool. When cool enough to handle, shred the chicken and set aside. Reserve 3 1/3 cups of the broth (1 cup is for the chicken gravy, supplement with boxed stock if you don't have enough.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13- by 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a large saucepan, combine 2 1/3 cups of the reserved broth, the Chicken Gravy, green chiles, onions, garlic, sour cream, cumin, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat.
• Spread 1 cup of the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Arrange a layer of 6 tortillas over the mixture, and then top with 1 cup shredded chicken and 1/2 cup of the Cheddar. Repeat this layer three more times, ending with cheese. Spread any remaining mixture over the cheese. Make sure all of the tortillas are covered or they will get very hard during baking. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan and whisk in the flour to make a roux. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture bubbles and the flour turns light brown in color. Gradually whisk in the stock and milk and continue to stir while cooking over medium heat. When the mixture thickens, after about 5 minutes, whisk in some salt and pepper.

SKINNY CHICKEN BROCCOLI CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Instructions 1. You need to cook your chicken and cut it into bite sized(ish) pieces - this is how I do it. Some people boil or bake, but for this recipe I cut mine up (with scissors!) and brown in a skillet. It's just faster, and with an 18-month old screaming for dinner, speed is key. Any method will work though. Do what it is best for you. 2. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. Yes, I use scissors (these are chicken specific scissors to avoid contamination). I use scissors to cut virtually everything. Even pizza. I can thank my mom for that. 3. Place pieces of chicken in your skillet and cook until there is no more pink in the centers. This is clearly over one pound of chicken. Boneless/Skinless breasts always seem to come in two poundish sized packages so I cook the entire amount and freeze half so I can skip this step next time 4. In a small baking dish combine 2 tablespoons of light mayo 5. One can of reduced fat cream of mushroom soup. (There is no possible way to get a picture of this that doesn't look like a blob coming out of a can, I'll spare ya) 6. a bag of frozen broccoli 7. a 1/2 cup shredded cheese 8. one pound of cooked bite-sized chicken 9. Mix everything together and level. Be careful mixing, your dish will be pretty full. But I'd rather be careful mixing than dirty another a dish I'll have to clean! 10. Now, this next step is optional - but I did it once and it stuck. If you have any sort of crackers crumble about 1/4 cup over the top of the mixture to add some crunch. In this case, I had reduced fat cheese-its on hand. 11. bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes Calories: 310
