Description
A quick and easy casserole that combines creamy, cheesy, and crunchy elements for a delicious meal ready for busy nights or potlucks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (10–11 oz) bag Nacho Cheese Doritos, lightly crushed
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie recommended)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
- 1 can Ro*Tel tomatoes with green chiles, lightly drained
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup diced onion (optional)
- 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar + Monterey Jack blend)
- Optional toppings: sour cream, diced tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, olives
Instructions
- Mix the creamy filling by stirring the chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, Ro*Tel, taco seasoning, and onion in a large bowl until fully combined.
- Crush the Doritos by gently pressing the sealed bag to create medium-sized chips.
- Build the first layer by scattering half the crushed Doritos in a 9×13 baking dish and spreading half the creamy chicken mixture across the chips.
- Repeat and top with the remaining Doritos, creamy filling, and shredded cheese.
- Bake at 350°F for 25–30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly with melted cheese.
- Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving with your favorite toppings.
Notes
For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and reduced-fat cheese. You can also modify the recipe with more veggies or spices as desired.
