Ingredients
  

  • 3 chicken breast halves, cubed
  • 1 can  Rotel
  • 1 bag  tortilla chips
  • 1 can  cream of chicken soup
  • 1 small can chopped green chiles
  • 1 pound  shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cook the chicken until fully cooked and dice it into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the Rotel, soup, green chiles, and cheese.
  • Microwave the mixture on high for approximately 1 1/2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Add the diced chicken to the mixture and stir to combine.
  • In a casserole dish, create alternating layers of tortilla chips and cheese mixture, starting with half of each. Repeat the process with the remaining chips and cheese mixture. Sprinkle some crushed tortilla chips on top of the casserole.
  • Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes or until it is thoroughly heated and the top is golden brown with a bubbly appearance. Serve hot.

Notes

  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken instead of cooking chicken breasts from scratch.
  • Use a Rotel brand with your preferred level of spiciness to adjust the heat level of the casserole.
  • Crush the tortilla chips before layering them in the casserole for better texture and easier serving.
  • You can also add some canned black beans or corn to the mixture for more flavor and nutrition.
  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set and make it easier to cut and serve.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or frozen for longer storage.
