2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chiles

Bake casserole as directed, increasing time as necessary to heat through and for a thermometer inserted in center to read 165°. If desired, serve with sour cream and green onions.

Test Kitchen Tips

Good cooks like to keep some go-to meals on hand that don’t require a special trip to the store. Keep chicken breasts in the freezer and you’ll always be ready.

Sharp cheddar cheese has been aged longer than regular cheddar. As cheese ages, its flavor becomes more pronounced. Using aged cheese in a recipe can add complexity and rich flavor, even to humble favorites like mac ’n’ cheese.

These are the easiest baked dinners to make tonight.

I added a can of San Marcos peppers in brim, I had to diced them up because they are canned long ways. It gave this recipe a kick of flavor, and its an easy recipe. I loved it.

Please review the language on this site. Reviewers can surely find better vocabulary words to express their disagreement. I don't believe offensive language is necessary.

I grew up on this,we used floor tortillas. As for the chicken broth... it's too view Adam. If it's to soupy, cut back. As to the rest of you... grow the fuck up and get a life.
