Using left-over chicken, you can have dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes. We usually top our servings with sour cream and chopped onions for a little crunch.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup minced onion
1 (10 1/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 cup water
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package chili seasoning mix, powder
2 cups cooked chicken, diced
1 1/3 cups instant rice, uncooked
1/4 cup green peppers or 1/4 cup red pepper, chopped
1 1/4 cups tortilla chips, crushed divided
1 1/3 cups cheddar cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9x13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Combine onion, water, soup, chili powder mix, pre-cooked chicken, cumin, uncooked rice, and peppers in pan and cook approximately 10-15 minutes on low heat until rice is tender.
3. Line prepared baking dish with 1 cup crushed tortilla chips. Pour in chicken mixture. Top with cheese and remaining 1/4 cup of tortilla chips.
4. Bake 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and golden brown.
