From Rachael Ray Mag 11/08. I love that this is so easy and quick, and has so few ingredients! Would be even quicker & easier using an already cooked rotisserie chicken, and easy to lighten up using low fat sour cream and cheese. We like things pretty spicy so I added 2 seeded and diced jalapeno chiles and loved it that way!
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 1/4 lbs chicken breasts, boneless skinless
2 (16 ounce) jars salsa verde
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed & drained
1 onion, finely chopped
1 cup sour cream
3 cups tortilla chips, crushed
8 ounces mexican cheese, shredded
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375. In a large skillet, heat oil over med. heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once until cooked through, 10-12 minutes. Let stand until cool , then shred the meat into a large bowl. Stir in the salsa, kidney beans, onion and sour cream.
2. Grease a 9x13 baking dish, scatter 1 cup tortilla chips on the bottom and top with half the chicken mixture and half of the cheese. Repeat the layers and cover with remaining 1 cup tortilla chips. Bake until the cheese is bubbly, about 30 minutes.
