A comforting and hearty dish featuring tender chicken and sautéed vegetables wrapped in a creamy sauce, topped with gooey cheddar cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cooked, shredded boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup diced onion (about 1 medium onion)
  • 1 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1 cup diced green bell pepper
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups crushed tortilla chips
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium heat until no longer pink, about 7-10 minutes per side. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Sauté the onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper in the same skillet until softened, about five minutes.
  4. Combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, a dash of pepper, and the crushed tortilla chips in a large bowl. Stir until well combined.
  5. Fold the shredded chicken and sautéed vegetables into the creamy mixture until evenly coated.
  6. Layer half of the mixture at the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with crushed tortilla chips, then add the remaining mixture on top.
  7. Top with a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Let cool for five minutes before serving.

Notes

For a quicker preparation, use rotisserie chicken. Feel free to add your favorite vegetables or spices for extra flavor.
