Ingredients

  • 1/2 Garlic clove minced to add a subtle but delightful kick of pungent goodness.
  • 1/2 Medium yellow onion finely chopped to infuse the recipe with a savory and aromatic flavor.
  • 5.25 oz of creamy and comforting cream of chicken soup lending a velvety and smooth texture to the dish.
  • 1.5 cups of tender juicy cooked chicken, perfect for adding protein and satisfying your taste buds.
  • 1/2 tablespoon of tantalizing taco seasoning adding a delightful blend of spices that will transport you to the streets of Mexico.
  • 7.25 oz of Nacho Cheese Doritos crushed to perfection, delivering a satisfying crunch and a burst of cheesy goodness in every mouthful.
  • 7.5 oz of hearty canned black beans providing a satisfying earthiness and a boost of fiber.
  • 7.5 oz of sweet and juicy canned corn bringing a burst of vibrant color and a delightful crunch to every bite.
  • 1/2 cup of tangy sour cream adding a creamy and refreshing tang to balance the flavors.
  • 1 cup of a delectable Mexican cheese blend creating a melty, gooey, and indulgent sauce that will make your taste buds dance with joy.
  • Fresh parsley adjust to taste, providing a touch of freshness and vibrant green color, elevating the dish's presentation and flavor profile.
  • 2 ounces of mild green chiles imparting a subtle yet distinctive smokiness to the recipe.
  • 1/2 tablespoon of luscious butter bringing a hint of richness to the dish.
  • 5 oz of zesty Rotel tomatoes infusing the dish with a burst of vibrant and tangy flavor.

Instructions

  • Start off with your oven by preheating it to 350°F and spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cut the cooked chicken into small cubes and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add in the chopped onion and garlic clove. Sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add in the chicken cubes to the skillet and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the Mexican cheese blend, taco seasoning, cream of chicken soup, black beans, corn, sour cream, Rotel tomatoes, and green chiles. Mix together until combined.
  • Place crushed Doritos and then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with more Doritos and then sprinkle with parsley.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving

Notes

  • Make sure to cook the chicken completely before adding it to the skillet and make sure that it is cut into small cubes.
  • You can adjust the amount of taco seasoning depending on how spicy you like your food.
  • When stirring together the ingredients, use a spatula or wooden spoon so you don’t break up the Doritos on top.
  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving so that all of the ingredients can settle together.
