King Ranch Chicken


This is a recipe that has been around forever.  And for a reason.  It is no fail, and always delicious.  I imagine the recipe you look for will be pretty much what I am posting, but I did get this recipe from (Foodie Heaven) Central Market in Texas.  I made the entire recipe, but split it into two 8x8 baking dishes since there are only two of us.  One is in the freezer.  Isn't it nice to have a dinner on hand and so handy?

 KING RANCH CHICKEN  (Serves 12)

1 grocery-store rotisserie chicken
10-12 corn tortillas
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green onion
1/2 lb grated cheddar cheese
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
1/2 can Rotel tomatoes w/green chilies
small amount of chicken broth

Line bottom of 13x9 pan (oiled) or two 8x8 baking dishes with tortillas wilted in hot chicken broth.  Add in the following order:

chicken cut into bite-sized pieces
onion
green pepper
grated cheese
chili powder
soups
Rotel tomatoes.

Bake at 375 for 45 minutes.
