What is a Chicken Enchilada Casserole?
A chicken enchilada skillet casserole is a one-pan meal that features chicken, cheese, and a zesty enchilada sauce. It is easy to make and can be on the table in less than 30 minutes.
It is made in a skillet, so there is less clean-up, and it can easily be customized to your liking. Add in your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, diced tomatoes, or green onions. I also have instructions on how to make it in your Crock Pot and Instant Pot
Chicken Enchilada Casserole Ingredients
- Chicken Breasts– You will need boneless skinless chicken breasts or chicken thighs.
- Flour tortillas– I used 8-inch flour tortillas, but you can use any size you prefer.
- Enchilada sauce– I used my homemade red enchilada sauce, but if you like it spicier, you can use green enchilada sauce instead.
- Shredded cheese– For this Mexican dish, shredded Mexican blend cheese works best.
- Salt and pepper– You’ll need a dash of salt and pepper for seasoning.
This is a favorite for weeknight meals with my husband and a crowd-pleaser at our parties
