Directions
Chicken Enchilada Casserole, This recipe appears by special request. Creamy chicken and green chilies use the regular sized tortillas.. not the large ones.I overlap the tortillas to make the layer. I make it up in an oblong serving dish, I think it is about a 9 1/2 inch by 11 inch pan. But any size you would put 1 full cake mix into will work well . I love this recipe., I grew up in West Texas and New Mexico and this was a staple on our weekend supper table. The only thing missing from the directions for this recipe was to mention that you use the soup just as it is in the can; you do not first “prepare” the soup as instructed on the can. Some of us fully understand this, but I’ve seen more than one cooking “beginner” dilute the condensed soup before adding it into the recipe. I grew up with this recipe except for the fact that we layered the tortillas, diced chilies, cheese, onions and chicken or ground beef in a deep round casserole dish and didn’t add any soup until all the layering was done; then we poured a can of cream of mushroom soup on top, made sure it could seep down the sides into the layers, and baked it, topping it off with more grated cheese about 15 minutes before it was done. The mushroom soup has No Taste; it merely binds the layers together., Fabulous! used diced, roasted Hatch green chilies for extra kick and flavor. The whole dish was gone in the same night. In fact, my family wanted me to prepare the same meal the very next night.
