JALAPENO CHICKEN CASSEROLE



Jalapeno Chicken Casserole image

Someone gave me this recipe 13 years ago when I first got married. It's a very versatile recipe, you can change it up with different chips, make it spicier or less spicy. It has unlimited yummy potential. We've also used the filling as a dip.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 Tbsp butter
1 yellow onion, chopped (see my tip for tearless onion chopping)
1 can(s) diced jalapenos (4 oz)
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp onion powder
2 clove garlic
2 can(s) cream of chicken (10.5 oz)
2 can(s) cut spinach (14 oz each)
1 pkg cream cheese (8 oz)
1 bag(s) Fritos corn chips, tortilla chips
3 c cheddar jack, colby jack, or monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Boil chicken for about 30 minutes. Once done, chop or shred. You can also use leftover roasted chicken.
  • 2. Drain spinach of water. If you don't want your casserole to be really spicy, drain the jalapenos as well.
  • 3. In a large pan, melt butter. Sauté onions and jalapeños until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  • 4. Add your seasonings and cream soup. Stir well.
  • 5. Add chicken and spinach; mix well.
  • 6. Add in cream cheese; mix well.
  • 7. Put a thin layer of the mixture in the bottom of a 13x9 casserole dish.
  • 8. Next, layer it with crushed chips of your choice.
  • 9. Then top with cheese. Repeat this until the dish is filled, ending with chips and topped with cheese.
  • 10. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until casserole is heated thoroughly. Enjoy!

Instead of using jalapenos, you can substitute 1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chilies. It won't be as hot. You can also substitute turkey for the chicken.
